Biggest tire that fits on a 14 x 6 rim that still fits on the gen 1 brat?

Featured Replies

Just wanted to see if anyone could answer the question quickly. I'd rather not go to the tire place and have them mount and un-mount 5 different tires to see what the biggest tire will fit would be. So with that, does anyone know what is the biggest size tire that would fit an otherwise stock 78 Brat's 14 x 6 wheels? Thanks! And just so you get to see some pictures...

Your jackman looks like a 13. 14's are really hard to come by.

 

I think I read people were able to stuff 205 or 215's on 13" jackmans.

Yeah, I just took a tape measure and measured the rim across the face, and the the width. I guess I'll just go to the tire place and have them try however many tires until we find one that doesn't fit, then go down 1 size.

Curious if you figured out the biggest size that will fit on a 14? Im looking to do the same thing.

I haven't gone to the tire place after all this time. Still using the tires that came with the Brat when I got it. Although I should really deceide what rims to use...
