That looks great! I think I want the same set up.After 12 years of owning this Cruiser, I finally got the wheels and tires I dreamed of installed. No more hand-me-down mismatched 25 year old tires on my beach crusier.
Wheels are grey city racer 16x5.5 steel wheels and tires are falken wildpeak mt’s in 235/85R16. Hub caps are straight from Toyota.
After doing a bunch of research, I decided this is my ‘formula’ for a perfect 40. Stock height with (basically) a 32x9.0x16 tire. The Falken tire is made by Sumitomo Rubber, the same company that made the factory Dunlop tires in 1971. Of any modern tire, I feel the tread pattern is the closest to the look of a 70’s mud tire. The fact its the same manufacturer as what rolled off the factory is icing on the cake.
Going from 31x10.5x15’s to 235x85x16 is night and day. With manual steering I can turn in a parking lot again. The tires are soft, ride amazing and inspire confidence on the road. It feels ‘right’ to drive.
I love it. The wait was worth it for me. I have been waiting far too long for my cruiser to feel like this.
