In this video I go over my wheels, lift and tire combo on my Gen 3 montero. My lift comes out to just about 2.5" over stock hight after accounting for all the weight i've added in. I'm pretty pleased with this set up and plan to keep it where it is for the whole wheeling season

Hey bro. Before you start cutting. Have a look and see if the tires actually fit right on. I have a 2001 nm Paj. With 285/75/16 bfg ko2’s with 16x8” rims +22 offset and they fit on the vehicle with 1” lift. However now I have a 2” lift and they have tonnes of clearance. So if yours is older than 2003 don’t bother cutting anything. 2003 upwards have huge fat ugly guards which you’ll need to cut for sure as this guy did

@@I_AM_ALL_THAT_WAS Mine is also the pre-face lift. 2002. i will go with the MT of the bfg. Will go steel rims and i can't find anything in the +ET range. everything is -ET 20 to 44. That's too much for me. I found some 0ET rims in another country. I will definitely test first before removing anything form the car. There are a few russian videos showing where it actually rubs and it's an easy fix if needed to be done.

Loving the videos, you should try being in the uk, getting a lift kit is crazy money! I’m thinking of going for the same tyres and wheels size but 0 or +5 offset? Do you reckon I’d have less clearance issues as they would tuck in more? I don’t want many issues so 265/75/16 might be a safe bet

I'm interested to know if you have you found any vibration or CV related issues on the rear since doing the lift? I did a 2" lift on my Pajero and have since had a few vibes at certain speeds. I have new tyres with alignment. I also tried changing to GSP rear CV's but these had a bad knocking so I have reverted back to the original CVs.

I finally got around to installing my lift kit (Lovells/Bilstein) on my 03 and now looking for wheels. I'm thinking about going with 16x8 and 0 offset. But I really like how your -11 look. I'm running 31" tires. Before you made all the cuts were you rubbing bad while trailing or only when jumping the front end? I'm not planning on doing any jumping but concerned if going -11 will rub real bad.
@randindragonheart4558
@randindragonheart4558 2 жыл бұрын
There's a lot of factors involved like which spring rate did you go with, which bushings are you using, what setting on the struts, and if you're planning on upgrading your bumpstops. That being said, 31s should be fine, but you're probably better off with 0 offset

I got an 06 Montero, Old man emu shocks and springs, bout 1½ lift stiffer springs make for better handling. Bought some tires 5 years ago, when I got it Lemans (Chinese I believe). They've been great, over 40k on them, still got plenty of tread no vibration issues, I don't believe I ever got them balanced other than initial one. Out the door it was $470 at the time. Rotate them myself, as the place I got them from closed down a few years ago. I still have the stock rims. Does anyone know if any other truck or SUV has rims that fits the Montero that has an offset?

I would hesitate to go any taller without a sub frame drop because my tires are so close hitting the body of the car at full tuck. my bump stops prevent it, but even a half inch more and i'd hit. more lift would make it harder to compression, but won't actually change the geometry of the suspension meaning it would still hit.
