How much beter will my luv go in the mud if I go 2 15' tires and will I have 2 put on a body lift or can I just cut the fenders.There's not a big selection of agresive mud grips 2 chose from in 14' tires is the reason that i am thinkin of going this route Another question Has anyone ever put tractor tires on a luv.I found some 14'kabota tractor tires for 75 bucks each that will fit perfect on the stock 14' rims

Not sure. Is this a mud truck. I would think a smaller tire would turn faster. Do they make boggers in a 14 to fit. Wouldn't want tractor tires on a street truck
My opinion only about something I know not much about

YES THIS IS A 4X4 ONE THING I'M TRYIN TO GET IS MORE GROUNG CLEARANCE I'M GETIN HIGH CENTERED ALOT

About the only thing to do for the LUV to get more ground clearance, short of an axle swap, is raise the torsion bars in the front and an add-a-leaf and or shackle lift for the rear. My bars are raised 2" and has Rough Country leaf in the back. Has decent clearance, but a little rougher ride.

Plan to do a body lift later, will help get a little lager tire under it.

Here's a pretty good "how too"

well you you can get recap ( they take trator tread and put it on a worn out tire and glue it on there) its a rough ride but you can find them 50-75 each. what i did was raises the bars in front and put shacles in the back to fit 30x9.5x15 bf goodrich mud terrain

I'm not a 4x4 crawler or mudder but one thing to consider is that a lift will raise the center of the truck but not the diff's (or at least the rear in the case of IFS). The only way to do that is with overall tire height (center of hub to ground). The difference between 14" and 15" in your case would be which one will give you the tire height you want with the best choices. The tire choices in 14" are very limited. That's what I have but my height is only 27". If you choose to go with 15" rims then you have to buy rims before you can think about tires.

I ran 235/75/15s on my truck for a long time. I had to cut the front fenders a little. After that, they fit with no rubbing.

They are about 3" taller than stock, which gives you 1.5" more ground clearance.

There have been a lot of other posts about tire/wheel size. A 15" rim with a little negative offset (about 20 mm), like an Isuzu rim or Nissan rim, works well.

You went there in that?!?!

Shoot you can put a 2 in body lift and crank up the tb's to get 2 or 3 inchs of lift but I would get it realigned. Then do what they said either add a leaf or use longer shakles.I had 33in tires on 15s and it did fine.
