Young gun from down under
Hey guys,
just recently bought a 1999 4 door pajero io that needs abit of tlc to bring the old girl back to life.
also got a question for anyone that is able to answer as i cant seem to get a traght answer out of anybody, what is the biggest size wheel i can run on the io stock withought scrub? i can deal with a little bit of scrub full lock if i have to. Im used to land cruisers and patrols that you can put pretty much any size wheel and not have to worry about it?
cheers boys
No need to ask the previous owner ...
Being 1999 there is a fair chance you have the lower strut pan UNLESS it has been replaced with the higher strut pan (if you know the previous owner might be worth asking as it's a really popular mod)
Just go measure the strut - details and pictures are in the strut data thread
Strut Pan
Short and sweet answer -
Later model higher strut pan - 225/75/16 fits with 99% no scrub with a little on full lock - I have run this combination on the standard rims no problems
Early model lower strut pan - Believe 215/70/16 from what i read on here, your biggest problem will be the height of the tyre scrubbing on the strut pan rather then scrub on body at full lock etc - I have not personally experienced this configuration
