Tires??

Ram2145 · Nov 9, 2011

What is the biggest tires and rims I can fit on a 6" lift and 3" body lift?

HKkid · Nov 9, 2011

Should be able to stuff 37s.

Ram2145 · Nov 9, 2011

Yeah I can fit that with just a 6" lift but was wondering if I can possibly go bigger

HKkid · Nov 9, 2011

Problem you are going to run into is you are going to start rubbing.

Ram2145 · Nov 9, 2011

Really? Dang I thought maybe I could go bigger but oh well

The Assassin · Nov 9, 2011

I have a 3rd gen, so take this with a grain of salt...but I am running 38x13.50x20. 6" suspension and 3" bl. I recently added Bilstein 5100s up front, and plan to lift the rear..so, I will have more room. Currently no rubbing issues. However, this is a show truck, not daily driven or off road.

Ram2145 · Nov 9, 2011

I also got the bilsteins up front. So even with the 2 more inches I cnt fit bigger than 38's

The Assassin · Nov 9, 2011

Probably...

reefguy89 · Nov 9, 2011

bighorn4life and musclemceester are running 6" lift with bilstiens and 37's. So add in a 3" bodylift you should be able to clear 40's.

Issue with a tire larger than a 38 is the width. Generally speaking your looking at a 15.50" width.

Ram2145 · Nov 10, 2011

Would that be too wide of a tire?

The Assassin · Nov 10, 2011

I'd say anything more than a 13.50 is too wide. Not to mention...not really safe for an IFS set up...unless it's a show rig that never gets driven and is a trailer queen.

schroederMP · Nov 10, 2011

I've seen that set up with 38x15.50r20 with no clearance issues. Wheels were 5" backspacing also.

schroederMP · Nov 10, 2011

Rough Country 6" Suspension
Performance Accessories 3" Body
Bilstein 5100's set at 1"
Super Swamper SSR's 38x15.50R20
Moto Metal 955 20x10

Musclemckeester · Nov 14, 2011

Yeah with a 6" suspension and 3" body you can clear 40s. Like Dan mentioned the problem is the width. The guy above running 38x15.5x20 measured and said they are actually only 13.7 sidewall to sidewall. I think Interco makes some bigger tires that aren't too wide (in the 14" literal range). Mine are 37x13.5x20 but actually measure 14.1" wide. They clear but only because my backspacing because it's really close. I think some lift kits may allow for a little wider tire too.

The Assassin · Nov 14, 2011

Interco has the Irok...I know in a 20" they have a 39.50x13.50, and a 41x14.50.

Musclemckeester · Nov 14, 2011

I think when it's time for new tires I'll probably throw a body lift on a step up to 38s...or maybe something bigger.

I will probably go with a tire from Interco though. They are pretty light for their size too which is something to keep in mind.

Go big or go home

quietpeen · Nov 19, 2011

so what are you gonna get?

HeadHunter · Nov 27, 2011

38s on it if its a 4x4. as long as you dont try to go too crazy with the width. i had 20x12 on a 2wd with 10 inches of lift and it rubbed when we turned but its also a 2wd that sits lower from factory to start.
