315/75/16 BFG's on a 3rd Gen???

[PitbullRescuer]

Anybody running 315/75/16's? Any issues? My lift will be Tundra TRD's on 5100's and LC 8 Wraps with 5150's? Willing to go 1" body lift too if need be. Prefer not to go much more lift than that though. Don't have my heart set on this size tire either, just found a great deal them.

Thanks.

1" body lift will be needed.

But it's possible that these will fit.

You'll need a re-gear.

There are lots of people running 35" tires, well actually 34.6" but about the same. There are lots of issues that you will run into.

Like higher center of gravity, larger tires cause more stress on cv's so expect to break one expecially with a front locker. Expect a lot of trimming and pounding of the wheel wells to fully flex without rubbing, you may need to lower rear bump stops also which is a good thing to help the shocks from over compressing. Also you will want to regear to get your power band back. Expect to install some front spacers, or new rims, or some aftermarket/shaved strut towers since they will rub on the front without correct backspacing. Ohh and I would go with 1.5" BL or maybe even 2".

I ran those exact tires. I now have Duratracs in the same size. I have a 2 inch body lift so i didn't have to do much trimming but both brian2sun and Jmoney have 315's with a 1 inch body lift. Rockdawg has 35's and no body lift.

You will need wheel spacers in the front if you plan on putting them on stock wheels. I put Spidertrax on all 4 wheels

I didn't regear either but i do have a supercharged 5 speed. Its still not as big of a loss in power as most people think it is.

BFG's run small for the size you will have no issues

LOL. Actually, I knew about that thread. Even worse though, I didn't realize these were 35's. I thought everyone running 35's was running standard sizes, not metric. :hidinginshame :rant:
