35" tires

[97.twodoor.4x4]

So right now I'm runnin 285/75/16 no problem with a mild t bar crank what I'm wondering is if I run the 2-3" rough country suspension lift will I be able to fit a 315/75/16. Basically a 35" tire. Please help. Thanks

u can but you will rub. you can cut your front bumper and inch on both sides and then you wont rub. me personally 35's on on 3 inches of lift isnt that great. 33's look awesome and function a lot better

I'm running that size now, and I'm on a 6" Rough Country lift. I wouldn't try it on only a 3" lift, unless you're adding a body lift, too

The plastic molding on my front bumber was ripped off today. I put a brush guard winch combo on and the molding was in the way so all of that came off. Haha. I've got a 2 inch body lift which is why I cleared 33" no problem at all. But with the frame still being stock hight the 33 just look small.

Don't waste your money with the 2-3" RCX lift, seriously, trust me.

^^^^listen to him. He is having a really poor ride. Get the 6" kit and UNcrank it for less lift. however I would crank it a little. I just installed a RCX 6" kit and still needed to get the saw out to clear bald 35" tires. I even had to trim with my cepek lift

Ik it's not the best idea I just wanted to know if it would work. I'm a poor college student with a minimum wage job. Haha

I've got a 96 2dr on 315/75/16 bfg all terrains and all I have for lift is a torsion bar crank in the front and they don't rub at all I'll post pics later with a computer

 

[bowtiefreak]

I always wonder how people can not rub on 35" tires with just a crank. My tahoe is an 8" lift in teh frnt and I can get them to rub. I just added the rcx kit to the suburban and had to saw teh back part of the wheel well, and steps.

 

[96GMCYukonGT]

Lol I don't know either there on stock rims still too

 

[bowtiefreak]

I ran 33x12.5" on stock wheels and rubbed like crazy

 

[96GMCYukonGT]

there she is t-bar crank with 35s on stock rims with no rubbing

 

[bowtiefreak]

are those 35x12.5? I am just finding it hard to believe it doesn't rub when turning, backing up, over bumps.....you get my point.

My sig pic is 6.5" of lift....see how close that tire is to the rear part of the front fender? It sounded like my truck was eating itself backing up and turning over a dip or big bump

 

[96GMCYukonGT]

Not sure how wide they are in inches but they are 35 in tall and they really don't rub at all and I've had them on for a week now and have already been 4x4ing with them

Truck looks cool, but seriously your truck is begging you for a proper suspension lift. Trust me it'll make it happy and you aswell.

 

[96GMCYukonGT]

i cant afford it yet lol

So I found a 2" leveling kit that comes with new keys and 2" blocks. Ik I'd have to uncrank the torsion bars install the keys and the blocks. But am I gonna have any alignment issues?

 

[bowtiefreak]

no need for keys on your truck, simpley crank the stockers

 

[97.twodoor.4x4]

The crank wears on all the ball joints amd tie rods. Plus the new keys go up to 3" and comes with 2" blocks for the back. I can get it all for 120 bucks. So what I'm wondering is if I'm gonna have trouble with the alignment
