Tires THEN Lift

[Bruin87]

I've been viewing this forum since I got my 2000 with 70,000 miles last December and feel like I'm finally ready to do some work to it (besides simple maintenance.) I'm planning on installing an OME lift kit soon but won't have time until Christmas break. In the meantime, though, I'm planning on doing a good amount of snowboarding and my tires are definitely due for a replacement. Should I put off installing new tires until I do the lift or does it really not matter?

Thanks for your help!

That depends on if you got bigger tires.

Depends on the size tire you are planning on running. If you are only going with 265/75/16's (32 equiv.)then you can get away with them before and after the lift. If you want ot go with 285/75 or 255/85(33 equiv) then NO you must lift before you get the tires.
