I went from 12 to 14 and I have no regrets. 2004 Subaru Sambar . Shifting is the same but the ride is so much better ride. Feels much better. 120 to 140km no problem with power to spare.
Thanks so much for the practical comparison! In my area it's required to change the tires to make them road legal, and I wasn't sure how it'd affect things. Seems alright
Ok thanks I’ve been wanting to hook one up but haven’t found any reliable sources online good choice on the 23” tires any bigger they just don’t have enough power.
Nice video segment on your tire & rim comparison. I was wondering at the very end of the video as you were rounding the long curve, if your camera is mounted on a gimble, or is that your truck has play in the steering? Just observing.
No, I never did but I’ve been thinking about putting together a quick thing on how I did it. (The signal wire for the tach is hooked up to one of the injector signal wires.)
There are three wires for each injector. A ground, 12v supply, and 5v signal. I first tried the camshaft sensor but the signal was not very good from there
@@ianstraker3060 I’m having problems with mine. I have a 95 Suzuki carry and I tried to put 14 inch tires on just like you did and I got a hell of a death wobble.
@georgelohnes6588 Are all your front end parts in good shape? Do you have a lift kit installed, that may have put your wheel alignment out enough to cause problems as well.
@@ianstraker3060 ticket to a garage and they looked at all the front end stuff and it all looks fine. They did a wheel alignment on it but every time I go over 80 I get a hell of a death wobble, but it’s fine with regular tires.
If your front end is good, alignment is good, then that’s all I got. Unless it’s a front wheel balance issue but you wouldn’t think it would turn into a death wobble. Unless it’s being amplified through the light duty steering on these trucks with the oversized tires??

Glad I could help!
My dream car mini truck new generation 😊😊😊😊
Haha! I hardly drive my main vehicle anymore! It’s like ripping around in a go-cart everywhere you go.
Great video!
Thanks dude!
Just ripping. Great comparison video🤘
Thanks bud!

Ya, thanks. They are about the limit! Ha

Hey, thanks! The gopro does have some movement but I got a little loose on that last curve and had a bit of a controlled power slide. Haha.
Did you make a vidseo on installing the tachometer?
No, I never did but I’ve been thinking about putting together a quick thing on how I did it. (The signal wire for the tach is hooked up to one of the injector signal wires.)
Scratch that, it’s one of the coil pack wires.
nice one, guy
Thank you!
Is your truck injected? Just wondering where you hooked up the signal wire for the tachometer?
Yes, fuel injected. I hooked up to one of the fuel injector signal wires. I poked around with a multimeter until I found a 5volt power supply.
There are three wires for each injector. A ground, 12v supply, and 5v signal. I first tried the camshaft sensor but the signal was not very good from there
There there is already a tech signal in the instrument cluster. In the manual it is the engine speed sensor wire.
I pulled my 14's off and put 12's back on. I think they ride better.
Is that right? I’ll have to try that next summer. It will definitely have more power with the 12’s.
What’s the model of wheel you went with?
They are Fast Wheels. They are called Jet and I got them in gloss black. 14x5.5, +40 offset, 4x100mm, 60.1mm bore.
Hey can we talk about this I have one
Ya, what do you want to talk about?
