How to Determine If you Have Clearance to Go from 13 in Wheels to 14 in Wheels on a Travel Trailer
Question:
Im considering changing wheel size from 13inch to 14inch on my jayco TT What is minimum space between tires and wheel well?
asked by: Gary M
Expert Reply:
That really depends on your suspension setup and how much travel the suspension has. Basically if you go to a 14 inch wheel there will be about 1 inch less room between the tire and the fender well and at most an increase in width of 45 millimeters.
Without knowing more about your setup the best advice I can give you would be to measure what clearances you currently have with the info I just said in mind and determine if you think you have enough clearance.
Going to a larger wheel will require you know the bolt pattern of your wheels as well. Check out the FAQ article I attached on how to determine this for you to check out as well.
I wish I could be more helpful.
