Suspension Advice
I am relatively new to the forum and this is my first post.

I have a 2008 V6 Sport Edition, which I just ordered the Daystar 2.5Front and 2Rear Leveling/Suspension Lift Kit, which I am waiting to install. The company that I purchased from said I would be able to fit a 32x12.5 tire with minimal rubbing, which sounds pretty good.

I was thinking about going with a 35 inch tire, and was wondering what additional lift/suspension modifications this would require, and what would be the most economical way to fit those tires under the vehicle.

Your advice will be greatly appreciated.

Chris

Your going to need alot more than a $100 spacer kit to clear 35's. there are only a handful of folks are running 35's.

Forget about 35s, youll have a hard time even clearing 33s with that spacer lift

Unless you want to do a lot of cutting, I would do the 275/70/17 or 265/70/17 with that lift. A 12.5" wide tire would require wheel spacers to prevent rubbing the upper control arm, and with the wheel spacers it will cause you to rub the body mount, so you'd have to have that chopped.
