Hello all,

has anyone ever installed a set of 18.4 x 34s on a 185 ?

Will the rims and centers from a 6080 work on a 185 ?

Thanks

Have seen 16.9 x 38 on 185's. Yes, I believe the 6080 wheels should work. Probably will need to put studs in the 185 axles because the 6080 centers are cast and quite thick.

Always wanted to try what you are doing. Please post some pictures if you set one up that way.

Never say 34`s on a 185, but I have a 185 high clearance with 38`s I`m going to part out if your interested, tires are shot, but wheels and centers are fine.

What do you want for the rims & centers ? Will have to check to see just how much that raises the rear end as I will be getting into clearance issue's ( canopy ) on my shop door.

I think I can still squeeze by with the 34's though.

Thanks

With taller rears, you should put taller knees on the front axle too, or taller tires to level it out some.
