YesCan you get large plates now in Michigan?

Thanks. I have an add leaf ($36 on Amazon), 1 1/2” wheel spacers ($74 on Amazon) and swapped the front and rear shackles. Tires are 235-85 R16 31.7”x 9.3” same width as stock tires.That looks perfect!!! Did you need to do any further modifications to avoid rubbing?

I don’t think so.. they fill the wheel wells a good bit more than I expected. I think at the very least, you’d need to swap the front and rear shackles and add the wheel spacers.Would those tires fit under there without changing anything being they are the same width?
Looks good.
Ok, Thanks. Don't reply to my other post. lol. I'll delete it.I don’t think so.. they fill the wheel wells a good bit more than I expected. I think at the very least, you’d need to swap the front and rear shackles and add the wheel spacers.
I will measure them from the ground up for you tomorrow, no problem. Your plow mount to the front bumper? Would swapping the front and rear shackles have any effect?Ok, Thanks. Don't reply to my other post. lol. I'll delete it.
I don't know. I'm not much into playing with moving much suspension stuff. I was just hoping for a taller tire, but not wider.I will measure them from the ground up for you tomorrow, no problem. Your plow mount to the front bumper? Would swapping the front and rear shackles have any effect?
.3 probably wouldn’t matter when you split it, it becomes .15”. I just would like to go to that size of tire without changing anything and just use the second holes on the plow mount. Again, just thinking out loud. Lol 2 sets of tires and rims are an option. I could easily use my stock ones for plowing. I remove the plow mount for summer, so when I put the mount back on, I swap tires/rims. This thing was a beast last winter with no lockers, then I added the rear locker, now I have both and I think I can push over mountains. LolNice set up. Looks like a heck of a lot of work, but I’m guessing the Roxor makes it a little more fun.
So going from stock tires to these, you’d be .3” shy of 3” taller. If you swapped the shackles, you would add a 1/2” to the front which could easily become .3 with air an pressure change. Swapping mine was one of the easiest things I’ve done to the machine. You may not need to go with the wheel spacers.
Just measured the tires. They’re actually 31” exactly from the floor to the top of the tire with 40lbs of air in them. The fender flares hang down a bit from the factory fender but there’s still 4 1/2” of clearance from the top of the tire to the factory fender. I don’t see why you couldn’t put these on without a lift..3 probably wouldn’t matter when you split it, it becomes .15”.

If the tires actual height sitting on the Roxor comes in around 31.5” that would be about right.

You’ve got me looking into spartan lockers front and rear now.. this thing is about to get expensive.
