Has anyone tried running 285/75/16's with no lift? I may need to replace tires soon and if I can stuff 285/75/16's (32.7") I'd like to try.

I had em on my 02 suburban...no rubbing really. Sometimes it was a bit tough to parallel park, lol. But it made the ride feel more sturdy. At least IMO

285's on stock wheels, will clear with only minor turning of the torsion bars. Shouldn't have to bring it up more than an inch, which will actually look better, instead of a forward rake.

I have 285's on mine, with non-stock wheels (16x8's, 1 1/4" less offset than stock), and I was able to clear those by turning my bars up about 1 1/2", and trimming the front lower plastic valance about 1/2".

Is yours a Z71? And by any chance do you have pictures? I'd be interested in seeing what it looks like.

I put pics up on Flexx's thread about choosing his tires and stance in the Exterior Discussion Forum
