Thinking of upgrading your mini truck with oversized MT tires? Definitely watch this video first.
I go over mud terrain tires and how they preform on my 1990 JDM Suzuki Carry Kei truck.
Tires and there size play a big roll on how these mini trucks preform on road and off road.
I was quite surprised how much different my truck feels just my changing tire sizes.
**13" Mud Tires I have on my truck.**
Set of 4 Forceum Mud Tires-165/80R13 amzn.to/45hKs03
For the larger 25” Mud Tires they are called Mongrel Kanati from GBC motorsports 25x8R12”
Rimes are ITP 12” 4x100 bolt pattern
Wheel spacers are 4x114 to 4x100 and they are 1.5” wide.
I used 13” GEO Metro rims from a mid 90s GEO and 1/4” wheel spacers, you could probably even run 3/32” spacers.
The 13” Forceum MT tires are about 23” tall.
If you are interested in the 13” MT Tires I bought for my Suzuki I don’t have a link but you can look up

Mike I like the looks of your machine with the lift kit and smaller tires. Many people are all about the look of the rig and forget about the function of the machine. With these little displacement motors these little trucks have, gearing is everything. Tall tires toss the stock gearing out the window, then the owner's grumble about how poorly the truck performs on and off road because of it.

I 100% agree with you, these trucks work really well stock. It’s kind of amazing what a little 660cc engine can do in these trucks. I really enjoying owning a Kei truck. Thanks for checking out my new video and commenting 🙂👍

@@Mikefestiva you are welcome, I've had 4x4 rigs for 42 years now and all of them have been stock other than tires that were near stock size. My current rig I've had 30 odd years and it's stock as it came from the Toyota factory, it has over a million miles on it and it's paid for. I've been looking at one of the Kei trucks to use around the island so I can work on my 79 Toyota and do some much needed fixing.

So little tuning and whatever to get more power before doing tire upgrade? If it had a bit more power and better tire, it will do better off road. Might even want brakes and suspension upgrades. Can't want to get a Kei truck and do some of these things.

Got it stuck on the beach a few times but I dug out, aired down more and shoveled sand into the trunk and got out every time with no help. Appreciate you helping everyone yet again.

Also seeing that tire machine brought me back to my tire mounting days in high school lol. Cant wait to see the next one! 🍻

23" mud tires are definitely the sweet spot for on road and off road use. I wish there was a 23" mud and snow tire that fit the stock 12" rims. I'll probably just go with the 21" (145R12) Yokohama Super Digger II tires. I wonder if my local tire shop can get them in the US. Shipping five tires from Japan is expensive. I almost entirely drive on road but want my Hijet to be off road capable, mostly to crawl up out of my back yard with a load of tree limbs. Thanks for taking the time to show the details and explain what works and why.

Definitely 👍 there’s not a lot of extra power to spare. The little 660cc engine does surprisingly good if the vehicle is kept fairly stock. I think they produce about 48 HP. I have been really enjoying my little truck, but I also didn’t mind traveling out of state on my old DR 200 motorcycle years ago. I would always say it’s not always the destination that makes a trip, it’s also the journey of getting there. 🙂👍 Take care Tom

They are great off road and not to bad on highway. I can reach 55 with no problem but they do make a lot of noise on highway. I am about 80% off road with my mini so I can put up with the highway noise.

@@Mikefestiva I've ported and polished the intake manifold, increased the exhaust size and done a couple of other things. She'll do 60. But that's her Max. These are mostly choked to death at the intake manifold.

Mike looks like I got the same tire on my samurai in 235/75/15 but called thunder trac. Lol. Got lot side bite I like um. And it cut my power down. But I’m mostly off-roading.

Thank you for the vid. Going through and finding what I want myself, huge on that list is that the truck needs to hang on secondary roads, 55mph is a must. Registration will be causing some headaches for sure, but it will all come together.

Thanks for checking out my videos 👍 After making this video I installed a new carb and adjusted the timing and now my truck pulls 55/60 MPH on the roads, just not that fast up steep hills 😂

@@Mikefestiva I'm on the hunt now, maybe by spring. I'm going to be copying your tire setup, it's perfect. What do you have for suspension setup? A while back someone was doing long travel suspensions, I'd love to figure that out, maybe get a touch more articulation.

Have you pursued any upgrades or modifications for you engine or trans to increase top speed at all? i've seen supercharged sambars and was just curious if the carry's had anything in that area as well since i'd like to get one to daily but it would need to do around 60-65 mph.

Great video , changing tire size changes the speed you are actually doing , take and have the speedometer checked for actual speed that you are going , you can do this with a stop watch and a measured mile .

I just run a GPS on my phone to know my speed because the stock speedometer is in Kilometers. You definitely are right about tire size and how it effects the speedometer 🙂👍

It looks good with proper sized tires. The only thing I see questionable is the length of the lug studs with the spacers. I would want the lug nut to at the very least to be flush with the end of the studs. Preferably the studs should protrude out of the nut by ¹/⁴ inch or so.

Would you ever consider raising the gas tank to the spare tire location? Also, if you did, how difficult would you expect it to be.
