Fitting 27 inch tyres

Post by rubisubi » Mon Jul 28, 2008 4:21 pm

Hey guys, im sure this topic has been covered before. So if anyone knows the thread id love to have a read. Basically, i have a 2 inch lift kit in an 85 brumby and was wondering if the wild conquerors (27inch i assume) would fit, given that i trim the 1/4 panel and politely massage the bodywork. Or do i need to have the 3 inch lift? If so i cant see it happening! The hassle of taking the old kit out and sourcing a new one would take far too long i imagine.

I ran 27"s for years with a 2" kit. But it's no big deal to change to 3" if you want to.
