Re: Tire size and lift help?

If those are in fact 315/75/16s they are ~35/12.5 I run that size on my 98. The Mickey Thompsons I'm running this time around are a little more than 34.5" tall. That being said to clear those on a 67-72 4" springs should give a stance similar to above. I'd start at 4" and throw an add a leaf in if needed. In the future I'm going to run a 17" wheel so I can get away from the metric sizing that is inherent with a 16. That way I can run a 35/12.5/17 and it more or less be a true 35".(each tire brand measures a little different from the another) when I get to that point on my Cheyenne I'm going to run 6" springs and 35/12.5/17 bfg MUDs with m/t classic II's.
