Lift Question

Does anyone now if 35 x 12.5s will rub front fenders on my 70 K20 with 4 inch Tuff country Lift?

Re: Lift Question

Re: Lift Question

You should be fine although alot of it depends on the wheel that you are running. Positive verse Negative offset. Are you planning on the lift or are you trying to figure out what will fit on your truck thats already lifted? Can always go into your local tire store and have one test fitted...if not you might look towards a 315/75

Re: Lift Question

Actually i Started my restoration and the truck previously had 4 inch block lift and while tearing truck down noticed they had chopped the front of the front fenders a little to get clearance but it was already to late to check. On the web site im ordering my new 4 inch lift it says recommends 33 x 12.5.

Re: Lift Question

33 x 12.5's fit on my C-20 with no lift, so I think you'll be fine.

Re: Lift Question

Kinda depends on how you plan on using it. If it's just a street truck, you will probably be fine. I have a 6" lift on my blazer, and even with the lower rear of the fender cut off back to the brace, my front tires hit hard in the rear if the wheels are turned even a little bit. But this truck gets "wheeled".
