Big Wheels for my Lib Gen2
Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2009 1:00 pm
Thought i might post some info o help anyone considering going through with larger wheels on their 4x4 Libs
I was lucky enough to pick up a set of 07 Forester wheels at Caboolture markets for $50
Bob Jane at caloundra installed some 215/65 R16 WanLI tyres for me.
The tyres have been great for the work i do.
The speedo is approx 10kms out at 100kmh and i intend changing to outback speedo drive to rectify this
Next time i need tyres though i will reduce the width as the libby doesnt need them so wide and also reduces tracking on uneven roads
You do need outback struts though or the tyres will scrub on the old struts.
Hope this helps someone..
