Yeah, I am the one that said that, and if you want to know why its because you told us nothing about your car before asking about tyres that are too big for most cars. The fact that you are asking about tyre size led me to believe that you are new to Suzuki's and may have a standard car. Please post a couple of pics of your car, tell us a little bit about yourself and tell us who did your mods, if you did them then can you give us some details of how and why.

Here are a few questions for you, is this car registered, how long have you had it, have you done any 4x4ing in it or are you still setting it up.

Actually it has sagged 2" lift and a body lift. Won't get much taller either. Maybe an inch.

Don't expect the silverstones to last long on road, I'd run road tyres and use them as a play tyre only. They're considerably softer than simex pedes and even they don't last a long time. Should do the trick offroad though, good tyre for a zook, but I've seen them get torn up easily on bigger rigs, tearing lugs right off. Shouldn't have that drama in a zook though.

Ok guys to fill ya in, ill be running my 31" goodyear Mt/rs on road if i can find 2 more 31 x 15 mt/rs.
I haven't drove it yet i have come from a comp truck gq patrol and a comp truck 45 series, been 4wdriving for around 6 years started when i was 16 i am trying to keep the car low as possible for the size tyres ill be running.

This car will be driven on road but not with the silverstones fitted. I have had my run ins with the cops driving my gq with 37 sticky treps from caboolture to glasshouse lol. Oh and 2stroker i was just telling ya what i had to see if it is ok i am new to suzuki driving, and I have herd it is alot harder need new lines and stuff but Im sure ill get the hang of it (hopefully).

My car is getting set up threw fatzook atm ute conversion, chassis extension , jeep springs rear end with bilstiens high travel shocks, transfer gears, 6.5s new front bar 220mm wheelbase extension and roll cage lots more on the list but that's all the cash i have atm.

on my list i still have front air locker 33 silverstones custome beadlocked rims made by fatzook, Also sliders and everything in the steering cromolly with a power steering but before i go stupid i need rego on the car any way guy i appreciate all the feedback to help me out.

oh about the lugs being torn off, i use to run 36 pedes on my gq comp truck, And i tore like 8 lugs off at land cruiser park over the weekend being there.
sold them for $1000 after sppending like 1800 for them bought creepys 38" and found they are horrible in mud sold them for $1600 then bought 37" sticky treps best tyre i have ever had reason im not getting them for the zook is because they dont come in a 33" bias ply if they did they would be my tyre.., when treps heat up you can grab a lug you can almost squeeze the lugs together there that soft..

on road the silverstones may equal boggers as the worst 4wd tyre ever
the jt2's are much nicer

Bhaha, hell no!

I was getting bad understeer in the dry onroad.

[GRPABT1]

It's a zook, it's going to understeer on a dry road 90% of the time....

It's not a race car.

And yeah we can only dream of sticky treps on a road going zook :*(

[matt.scorgie]

If I were you Matt, I'd be keeping with the 33's idea. Any bigger will mean that most of your driveline will nee dfurther upgrades, but most likely, it will need to be replaced with hilux running gear etc.

[GRPABT1]

The people saying 37's really are just shit stirring haha, we all know that's a different level for a zook. If you have 37's on a zook then I highly doubt it gets street driven at all.

[matt.scorgie]

yeah i am sticking to 33"s lol
