Thank you.
I'm thinking 295 / 75 R16 which spec is 33.3" tall x 11.6" wide but I need to get the body all back on the Chassis and get my pinion angle squared away if required and see how everything is sitting first.
With the custom springs it isn't like buying off the shelf where they run hundreds of them and know exactly how it will sit. The goal was to be approximately 2" higher than stock.

Not sure if you guys in the GTA got the weather we got. All ice pellets last night then snow on the ground until noon. Not much of a motivator.

Not here !! Cold as heck yesterday, but hopefully this is the end of it. Supposed to be a nice weekend. I'm planning on going to the Stirling market with the Blazer on Saturday. It will be the furthest drive with it thus far.
