simply put the motors are to small also the are rated very badly for roll overs so larger tires is not really a good idea
edit: loss of power attributed to larger tires can be corrected by changing the gearing in either or both the transfer case and differentials. Download the FREE Suzuki Samurai Shop Manual from http://www.suzukiinfo.com/ or visit zukikrawlers.com
Also, the roll-over tendency of the Samurai is no greater than any other SUV of similar wheelbase. Details of the infamous Consumer Reports falsification of test results can be found at http://www.suzukiinfo.com/
Suzuki successfully sued Consumer Reports and demonstrated in court that CR had rigged the tests to cause the Samurai to fail.

What else can I help you with?
Does putting bigger tires on a car affect the handling?
Putting larger tires on your car will give you higher top spee with less torque. However, changing the tire size will make your speedometer inaccurate.
Will putting larger tires on your vehicle than the regular size ruin the transmission faster?
No. Larger tires will probably throw off your speedometer and decrease your acceleration. The more meat there, the more power it takes to push them. If they are quite a bit taller, like mud tires on a 4x4 it would be a good idea to re-gear your ring and pinion in your axles.
Will larges tires on a jeep wrangler x axel ratio is 3.07cut down on power?
Yes, larger tires are harder to turn.
What is putting rear tires in front and putting the front tires at the back called what is that zigzagging pattern called?

Tires are out of balance. Have the tires balanced.
How much horse power can a stock 302 block handle?
my 302 is putting out 300 raw horse and 260 horse at the rear tires
Do bigger tires affect the speedometer How do you calculate the difference I had 14 inch tires and now have 17 inch tires?
Bigger tires only effect the speed compared with the speedometer if the total circumference around the entire wheel and tire is larger. I replaced my 15 inch tire with a 17 inch and there is no difference. The size (14,15,16,17 etc.) is simply the size of the rim and the hole in the tire for the rim to fit. Most of the time you wont need to worry because the tire sidewall will be thinner to accomodate for the larger rim. The only time you should really be worried about that is if your putting really big rims on a car or putting big tires on a truck. If the total circumference is larger than it will have to be taken to a dealership or mechanic to be recalculated.
Do big tires go faster on a car?
The larger tires would actually go slower, as you would have less revolutions over a distance than the smaller tires. As far the performance of the vehicle, theoretically, if the rear end gears remained the same, the car would have a higher overall top speed with the larger tires... however, that's before you factor in the higher drag coefficient, decreased power-to-weight ratio caused by the heavier wheels and tires, and also where the engine's power band is.
What gears should i get for 31 inch tires on a suzuki samurai?
For 31-inch tires on a Suzuki Samurai, it's generally recommended to re-gear to around 4.10 to 4.56 gears, depending on your specific use and whether you have added other modifications like a larger engine or different drivetrain components. This gearing will help maintain optimal power, performance, and fuel efficiency. If you primarily drive off-road, you may lean towards lower gears for better torque. Always consider the type of terrain and driving conditions you expect to encounter.
Does tire size change power?
No. The power of your vehicle remains the same but your vehicle may feel less powerful with bigger tires and vise versa Updated answer The advantage of larger tires, is a smoother ride on badly maintained roads. A larger tire smooth the smaller pot holes, as the surface area of a larger is increased. A 14 or 15 inch tire is about right for a saloon car.
What are the biggest tires you can put on a Suzuki sierra samurai with a 3 inch lift kit?

Do larger tires affect the odometer?
