New Jersey - 04 Pathy Se 4x4

Postby mattski » Sun Jul 20, 2008 5:12 pm

Here is my 04 Pathy, got it last year used with 35k miles, i love it. Havnt really done much to it yet besides the rainguards and the Thule snowboard racks. I am looking into some new rims, wanted to ask if anyone has ever went with a smaller rim and bigger tire combo, and if this had any adverse affects on handling and performance? I currently have a 16" rim, id like to go with a 15" and add that inch into tire size, also would probably add an inch at the rim width too so i have more traction on the beach. Then maybe go with a 2" lift kit IF they rub. Any suggestions or advice?

Here are some pictures...

nice... drivin' on that beach looks fun, just dont get to close to the edge :shock:

anyway, as for wheels / tires, yes you *can* go with smaller wheels and larger tires. i know on the current model PF, the bolt hole spacing is a bit wonky, and not many mfrs make wheel packages that fit the spacing. this may or may not be the case with your year PF... but i cant speak with any experience. also, you have to make sure your brakes will clear the wheels. smaller wheels may interfere with the brake calipers... this is bad :lol:

hopefully someone with more experience speaks up... until then,

welcome!
