33 mud terrains on 22" wheels???

[m8r8j]

is this possible? if so ill lift my explorer for it...

 

[peder25]

it is possible if they make a mud terrain tire to fit a 22 in rim. To fit that comfortably you will need to do what Roadbully did, a 3in coil spring and a 3in body.

Good point!

But putting 33" on a 22" -- that's quite a paradox

ya i was gonna plan on doing a 6 inch lift with 33x12.5x22 mud terrains with 3 inch wheel spacers... i think it would look badass but i dont think thye make the wheels i want

C'mon, looking "badass" is for rice rockets and ridiculously lifted "trucks"

I think it will be hard to find a 33" mud tire for a 22" rim. I know that there is a few different 33" mud tires for a 20" rim. I say go for it. I plan to do a 32" tire with a 18" rim. It is not the same but I can't find a wide enough tire in a smaller rim size that I like.

also, if you do find a 33x22 in tire it is going to be incredibly expensive!

If you buy a negative offset rim, you won't need wheel spacers.

But a 33" mud tyre for a 22" rim - I doubt they even make one. Most 4WD tyres stop at 17" or 18" - after that (ie 19" to 24"), you effectively have "sports" (road) tyres.

They make some for 20+ inch rims for the super duty guys but those are probably all going to be way to big for him.

And wrong bolt pattern . But I sure would love to see a stock (drivetrain wise) X with 8-lugged 22"s

I was saying that they make mud tires for 20+ inch rims. Can you imagine those wheel adapters though

Mud tires for 20s are going to be 35s and larger, but I doubt you are going to find any for 22s. BFG makes a 285/55R20 A/T which would be about 32.3x11.2.

 

[m8r8j]

yea it was just a thought... guess im SOL...

looks like ill be buying the proxies next season

Toyo makes an Open Country M/T in a 33x12.50x20
Nitto makes a Mud Grappler in a 33x12.50x20
Michey Thompson makes a Baja MTZ & a Baja Claw in a 33x12.5x20

So companies do make a mud tire for 20s in smaller than 35s

I know you asked for a M/T for 22s, but how about an A/T?

Copper Tire- Zeon LTZ 305/40/22= 31.64x12.71

Nitto Tire- Terra Grappler 305/40/22= 31.61X12.32
285/50/22= 33.23X11.54
