Thanks guys. I wanted the tires to just stick out a tad since I was not lifting it that much. The wheels are 8.5 with 4.75bs so just naturally theyd stick out only about .5 more than stock. Here are some freshly washed pics since there was bird crap all over the first ones.

Quick question, with 35s, how far off is your speedo? Any noticeable difference in power and mpg?

This is what I want to do, but leave stock wheels and probably wheel spacers.

Looks great man.

I had 275/65R20s on it which are about 34" tall. My mpg seems to be worse than most so I hate to speculate on that. It did drop some. I haven't had any vibrations yet. We'll see if I do in the future.

Ok thanks for your reply. Ever since new (I've only got 2200 miles) I've only gotten about 14 mpg best. That's a combo of highway and semi city driving. I loved the look of the 34s I just wouldn't want it to hurt the mpg's too bad
