     How tall is your garage door ?  I do not know if either of those will fit in a standard garage door.

      Are you talking about getting it in to be able to work on it ?  If that is the case then take off the tires, by some small cheap junk yard rims and go and get yourself some of the wheel dollies and move it on in.

If 33"s with a 4" lift wont fit than i will just go 35"s 6"
And yes just change tires to get it in i have tons of 8 bolt rims
I might just have to change the front just to get it pass the door opening
I do plan on raiseing the garage one day or build a new one
When i built this garage i was truck pulling and kinda built the garage to fit the truck
Bad move on my part

changing the tires is the way to go lol. i had the same problem with getting my truck in the shop and also getting it on my trailer (too wide) so i have a set of 31's that i slap on to get it where i need it and boy does it look funny 31's 9" lift haha! but it gets the job done for now.
