Tires and wheels

Newbie here. Can you put 15" tires and wheels on a wolf pup 16fq? Would there be any advantage?

Possibly. The larger tire will likely have a larger outer diameter. You need to make sure you have room above the tire.

You also need to make sure you can find a wheel with the same bolt pattern as what you have now.

The benefit typically is that you can get into a higher load range with more margin on the carrying capacity. What comes from the factory are usually crappy tires that can barely carry the weight carried by the axles.

Generally there would be a weight rating difference if that's important...

Here is a Goodyear Endurance chart
