Cruiser - your truck looks awesome! I love that color.

Ok 3" lift is 285/75 or 255/85 both 33" equivalant. To fit 35s or equiv you need 3" suspension and min 1" body with 1.5" body recommended. Any 4" suspension you find will be a bracket lift which hangs low and defeats any gain from lift since you are actually lowering your ground clearance by the bracket

Thanks! I don't have my boards on, so it would look a little different. But, I don't think it's BAD. Certainly not as good as the 285's though!

I'm in the same boat as you. My lift gets here tomorrow and I have no idea what it will look like with 265's. Good thing my Revo's are about shot - I'll probably have to get new tires around Christmas

Are you still planning to install the lift before you get the tires? Seeing your setup would really help me decide! Thanks

Totally. I'm chomping at the bit for the 2 packages to show up today. I'm really only going for 2.5" of lift all around to keep my truck level, so I would only be stepping up to a 265/75 next time around probably. The lift should be on by the end of this week
