Is it possible to fit 1600R20 on a stock M1078 and would it fit in the tire carrier?

Sean Fillner put 14r20s and had to modify the tire carrier by bending the rood a bit.

I saw a thread on page 5 or 6 breifly at work before I posted. Looking at the pictures I now see he removed the steps and fenders.
Read twice, post once.

you dont need to do anything with 14.0R20 beside put them on, but they are more expensive that 16.0r20. With them; yes you have to deal with clearance issues.
Again; as you might guess though...... this is common question... and is discussed in hundreds of threads to ad nauseam. The good hearted; very knowledgeable, folk who tend to answer questions with much insight realllly get burned out by answering the same questions over and over and tend to slowly stop participating. We need them around for their insights.

This needs to be a part of the sign-up process for new members, and maybe a bi-annual refresher for us longer active members.

Oh I know your not. I have been a member of a couple other forums since dial-up days so I do deserve a ribbing.

yes they fit, you'll rub on body mounts. no they're no where close to fitting into the spare tire carrier. the main thing is why, other than the fact that they look badass they don't offer much gains, you'll be able to cruise comfortably at around 63 without swapping gears but I believe all the 16.00 have a speed rating of 55 mph.

he's got the essentials, the shit**r and the two boxes that aren't strapped down.That's a tiny habitat on that build. Looks like it came off a Unimog...
