Introduction

Increasing the tyre size is one of the most common and most popular vehicle modifications for off-road purposes, but it provides certain on-road benefits as well.

However, using larger tyres than specified involves several disadvantages and potential issues, as well as several risks.

The process of putting on larger tyres usually isn't nearly as simple as just putting on a new tyre on a rim and driving away!

Solution

An entire encyclopedia can be written on tyre sizes.

Read the wiki article "Tyre selection and usage - best practices" for the hands-on practical guide.
