Hi guys,
I am at the point to do a 2 inch lift and thinking about one size up for the tyres in WA.
According to what I know, the limit for lift is 50mm for everything combined.
the difference between 265/65/18 and 265/60/18 is 28mm, so the car will gain 14 mm height.
Thus 2 inch lift + 14mm= 64 mm.
I think it is pretty basic set-up, but it is theoretically illegal.
The other info I got from Malaga suspension is: they said there is 18% allowable variance, which could push the limit to 59mm.
Thus, my questions are:
1: Is the 18% variance true?
2:Could anyone shed some light about the ramification regarding to insurance claim, legality or alternative solutions, if I run the 2 inch lift+ bigger tyres set-up?
My thought is: independent suspension height will affected by the load on the car. An unladen pajero with 2 inch + bigger tyres will be well above 59mm height increase, while it could be well within 59mm if there are 4 passengers and some camping gears.
Thank you very much.
