Whats the biggest (height) tires you can put on the back end of an IRS buggy without hitting the torsion caps that stick out?

Do a search. I think it is 31" with 29" torsions (long). 33"'s will hit. If you go with wider and longer arms 33's will fit no problem.

31s rub a tiny bit at speed when the tires are expanded. i would run no larger than 30s on an IRS car with the long torsion bars

I agree about 30's being max without having any problems. Using anything larger is where it starts to get "Ify".
