Title: Bigger tires!
Post by: Blue86 on September 28, 2019, 12:16:23 pm

Just a quick question about my 86 k10 4x4. If I can fit 33x10.50s on my truck with no lift, would it be reasonable to think that I could fit 38x12.50s with 5 inches of lift and get the same results?(no rubbing) Thanks in advance guys!

33s will fit depend on on the wheel

On stock rally wheels they will fit

A five inch lift will fit 35 or 36
 38s won’t fit with a five inch lift

Skyjacker will tell you a 6" lift is good for 37", 12.5" wide tires with 3.5" to 4" backspacing.

Considering the 33's on my 87 V20 (no lift) using Stockton Wheels 8" wide series 20 oe repo-looking wheel.  Anyone with 8-lug 3/4 experience with this?
