Re: Largest tire without a lift?

I love the bigger tires, more agresive, but i personaly would add a small amount of lift, but its beautifull as is.

Re: Largest tire without a lift?

Great points here and i would go with What pre runner said because his truck is a 2wd and as you can se in his pics he ran 32's/ The military designation of 1 1/4 ton is diffrent then the Gm Or Doge one but that has already been adressed. as for the waggy (WJ) rims i am not sure

Shamil, why would you want to go smaller? Why not bigger?

Re: Largest tire without a lift?

I ran 33 12.50's on a stock 86 4x4 no rub, not enough on hard bumps, no mods period.

I also ran 31 10.50's on a 2wd, it only had air shocks on back and spring spacers in the front ONLY because it was a stock straight 6 and sagged with a 350 in it.
