Tire Rub

[sidthekid]

Whats the deal with tire rub. My question relates to putting a 35" tire on my 95 hoe. It seems I have to buy the 6" lift before I can install the 35" tire.... is this true? Doesn't tire rub just have to do with back spacing??? Can't i just purchase a wheel spacer and put that in. Then wait and do the 6" lift?? I'm new at this and just trying to stretch out my dollars instead of dropping all that money at once. I need new tires soon and want some 315/75/16 nittos. I also have another question about upgrading these crappy stock brakes but I'll put that in the next thread. Thanks, Mike

you could fit them but you would have to do come cutting on the front bumper or they will rub.... im running 285/75/16's and they fit fine

yea, I'm thinking I should just do thie lift first and drive on my 265/75/16 until I got the cash for the tires...hopefully it wont look too bad....
