Zforce 800 ex tires and brakes

Can one install the same size tires on all wheels or with it mess up 4 wheel drive

Is it normal on this model to have low brake petal - after breaking dealer adjusted brakes but seems low to me

You can run all four tires the same size but you will also have to have all four wheels the same size so you can not use the OE wheels. Brake peddle- if it is set correctly and the system has no air in it and the slides on the calipers are working correctly there should only be about 1/2" of movement from the top of the peddle to braking pressure. If the movement seems correct but the peddle feels low, by hand lift the peddle. If you can lift it more then say 1/4", the rod is incorrectly set. Adjust the rod to be longer but make sure you leave some play at the top.

No. You can not put the same width tires on different width rims and expect the same diameter...which you must have with any 4WD vehicle. Just the way it is. And..you NEVER want 11" tires on the front of one of these anyway. They will rub and kill the front end parts. Get a set of 7"x14" wheels...say in a 5+2 oofset, and put a set of 10s..either 28s or (29s if an EX).. on all of them.

They offer the tire in 9s and 11s like factory. would that be the best route if I want to keep factory wheels. Oh 29 in. 29x9s on front and 29x11s on rear?

OE width is fine on OE rims. And although the 29s are getting close on an EX without a lift...you should be OK. You can always put a bracket lift on later if needed.

I've already done a bracket lift. That's one reason for bigger tires is to fill the wheel wells better
