What Tires and Rims Fit on a Mini Truck? (Check out our channel for videos of ATV tires on Trucks)

In depth look at what it takes to mount bigger tires and wheels on your Japanese Mini Truck. For this video we use a 2002 Suzuki Carry DA63T Kei Truck but these measurements will work on most other trucks including Daihatsu Hijet, Mitsubishi Minicab, Subaru Sambar and the Honda Acty.
We have dozens of other videos on our channel covering various topics of Japanese Mini Trucks or "Kei" Trucks. Whether you are looking to import or purchase a Suzuki Carry or you already own a Daihatsu Hijet, There is sure to be a video to interest you!

Best setup I've found on my Hijet is 14x4.5J rims with Nankang FT-9 185r14 Tyres. High load & speed rating and excellent on the highway and off road. Obviously requires a decent 2.5" lift

[@MrEbrahim019]

I thought this was a waste of time until i clicked on the channel its full of Kei truck content! so before hating the guy for not putting on the wheels on the truck make sure to check his channel out! Just subscribed!!

[@jp6234]

good video. I now have a basic understanding of "off-sets" & "back spacing". This will pay dividends when I get trail tires & new rims. thx

[@markhansen4258]

I think you've convinced me that the original OEM arrangement was the best.

[@delcosspdfreek]

Tire availability is the usual issue.

[@jeep2003]

I think it would look cool with small tires like golf cart ones and lowered down. Might be fun to try

[@seancola]

I got the same truck just a bit newer. I was able to fit 23x8 atv tires on no lift. Just had to trim the front plastic and remove the mud flap and plastic on edge of fender. Used 20mm thick wheel spacer to clear the shock. It’s tight but they fit.

[@zetam3]

Thank you for that video your time was not waisted! I'm thankful 🙏 great video

[@lincolnmeroiti4461]

Awesome Video bro. Learnt heaps. I have a 97 suzuki carry. Gonna start measuring up. 👌🏾

[@stevegraves2968]

Very good information. Thank you for taken the time to share.

[@Dgozz122]

Explained that very well thank you!

[@aaronsbarker]

What kind of restrictions are on the rear axle? I know the front has the most, especially with the turning sweep, but could you get a 10"ATV tire (or more) in the back for just that extra touch of flotation and traction? Diameter has to stay the same for drivetrain purposes obviously, but how far away are things like brake lines, shocks and spring perches?

[@mamon47]

hello nice video sir..can u give me some link to buy the mags and maybe i think they are using adaptor for it. thank you sir

[@lieshawaraboom3425]

Very helpful.. Thanks. Btw, how will i know the model year of the engine?.. We just bought a recondition unit last week back in the philippines.. No idea about mini truck or so called multicab in my country.. also, I want to change the tires to all terrain. What size will most fit with it. Thanks.

[@bryn3610]

Hey Jeremy, What width rims/offset should I be looking for to be able to mount a 175/65/R14 tire to a DA63T Carry?

[@Odd_Redneck]

Thanks!

[@CliffsideStables]

What is the the factory size wheel stud and lug nut for a 1989 Mitsubishi Minicab? Thanks, Tim @ Cliffside Acres

[@ryzz3340]

Being 6-2 6-3 my first thought is how is the legroom? And can they be used as a daily driver back and forth to work with a little off-road capabilities. Also how do they handle in the sand snow and ice.

[@awc2305]

What spacer would you recommend for a honda acty ha4 ? I'm looking to run a 13x8 wheel

[@snickerdoodlepop]

A good source to order the stock size tires ?

[@vidailypro]

mine just arrived and was wondering how to lift it? how many inch do you recon should lift and what size tyre should best fit with allow wheels? thanks

[@nealgold8442]

Great video and very informative.

[@davidbeaumont4455]

Hi. A question I hope you can answer. I have a 97 Suzuki carry DD51T. I want to use a set of vw 14" alloy rims. They fit and clear well, but I need longer wheel studs. Any suggestions to go from a 38mm long stud to a 45mm? I'm using a 2" lift with 23" o.d snow tire. Studs are 12x1.25mmx38mm I appreciate any suggestions you might have. Thank you.

[@Liberty4Ever]

Is there a DOT rated 23X8R12 mud and snow tire? That would seem to be ideal but I'm not seeing anything like that. Do I need 14" rims to get a 23X8 DOT rated mud and snow tire? Asking for my 2.5" lifted 1996 4WD Hijet mini truck. :-) I'm mostly concerned that a 25" tire would make the effective gear ratio so high that the engine couldn't rev high enough to make power for top speed in 5th gear. Very informative video. Thanks!

[@billyfuelrider]

Great videos. I'm in the UK and it seems very difficult to find lift kits and spacers. I have a hijet 2000 year. Could you help? Thanks

[@staygold5123]

Sorry I didn’t watch the FULL video if you said, but would spacers work for this to put bigger tires on? And/or if you lifted the truck?

[@andrewjames7923]

Keep up the good work!- Enjoyed the explanation- very clear. I was always a bit unsure of that stuff.

[@joneszhu4985]

Hi.. what is correct tire presaure on mini truck with 165/65 R13?

[@Juggalo5520]

What website do you use to import? I live in the US and these as well as other Japanese vehicles look kind of cool.

[@TheSocketshock]

Theres a japan auction hub that all the importers use.

[@erinsonduran6663]

Hello, I just got a 1999 Kia Metro Towner which is the same as the Hijet and I want to put new tires and rims. Can you share the link where you got them and information of what I need to buy ? Does golf cart rims fit? I see very nice ones on Amazon and ebay but don't know if the bolts pattern are the same. Thank you in advance for you help.

[@johnhaaland74]

I just bought a Suzuki carry and I was thinking that rims from a Suzuki Swift might bolt right up. Instead of doing all this measurement, just bolt them up. I did this with a couple of Metro's I had. I can't remember what size Suzuki Swift rims are though. This was a long time a go. I think they're 13 but I can't remember for sure. By putting size 13 on, I have a lot more choice in tires. 12 inch tires are very limited. This is the advantage of adding 13 inch rims.

[@MiPiMeRu]

I feel like there was some camber with the car lifted that might give inaccurate backspace measurement. Shouldn’t you measure that with the face of the rotor plumb, like if it was sitting on the ground, tire mounted?

[@Dadwithallthecool]

Jeremy…in your opinion, how would UTV Portals work on a mini truck ? As I think it through, it provides gearing down, lift and widening the stance. If they are 30% gear reduction would that mean you could install 30% larger tires( diameter) in have roughly stock performance. I have given this a great deal of thought and can’t seem to see or come up with negatives except for possible additional wear on steering components…

[@mattfelt2244]

where do you mainly get your parts from

[@generalcaeser9176]

I have 13" wheels on my 1996 Carry with 2" lift. Will 23.7" tall 13" tires fit? Specifically the tire is a 165 80 13. I am being told by pros that the 23" tires go on all day long with that 2" lift but how about the 23.7"?

[@user-oe2np6nt6m]

If your going too ATV tires on an 09 da63t... Can there be a difference in diameter?.. most ATV and sxs have shorter front tires for steering.. and they say the 3*/* rule applys.. are kei trucks the same, or do you need same tires all around

[@jasonboyle9750]

Thanks I was thinking I wanted a 25 inch tire with a 2 inch lift but I think now Maby 23 is a lot less headache

[@romulorivera9243]

Got info👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Four Sons Off-Road Inc. at no point in this video did you ever put any of those rims and tires onto this truck. You told us you'd need to install a lift kit, also at what point did you mount a rim/tire in this video all I saw was you place a spacer onto a hub...

For a vid this long it should have included actual mounting of the different tires/wheels with real world road testing. You gave some good information but it is useless for most people. Could get more info on forums in less time with actual recommendations and testimonials.

Поставил адаптер переходник, и всё? 18 минут ... 30 секунд надо чтобы объяснить. Клиренс надо увеличивать , а это рычаги, это тяги, это приводы и их угол... Или я что-то не понял. Вылет меняется, нагрузка на подшипники увеличивается... В стоке нельзя через адаптер заменить 12" заменить на 16". На зависимой подвеске может быть , но на не независимой это чревато ... Трабл будет. Проверено на собственной шкуре 30 лет назад.. Если получилось и не сломалось, то повезло . Удачи! Good L uck! Put the adapter, and all? 18 minutes ... 30 seconds to explain. Ground clearance must be increased, and these are levers, these are traction, these are drives and their angle ... Or I didn’t understand something. Departure is changing, the bearing load is increasing ... In the drain, it is impossible to replace 12 "through 16" through the adapter. On a dependent suspension it can be, but on a non-independent one it is fraught ... Trouble will be. Tested on your own skin 30 years ago .. (Google translator)
