ive just brounht some 14'' sunraysias for my L series. and getting light truck tyer on them. i wanted the 185 size but they only just fit (ie they wil probly rub on the guards under load, the front wheels anyway) and i was woundering if anyone has 185s and if theres any problems????
i dont have a lift kit yet....

any input would be gratfull.

185R14s will certainly rub without a lift. I had 185/70R14s on Sunnys though, no problems.

It also depends on the profile of the tire. I believe if you have a 60 profile or bigger it will rub. That is why people do the guard cut. That is what i have heard and read so far.
