I just purchased a 7 inch CST suspension today along with a 3 inch body lift and I was wondering if anyone has any idea what might be the max tire size I could fit? Online everything says 35's guy I bought the lift from says that with the body lift I should be able to fit 37s but they can't be too wide... I was looking at 20 inch wheels with a -44 or -24 offset but supposedly that might be too wide for my truck...

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

with 10" of lift I don't see why you couldn't run a 37" tire. are u wanting to run a 20x10 or 20x12? I would run a 37x13.50 or so on a 20x10 wheel with -24 bs

I would also think you could run 37's with a -24 offset.. I know 2wd trucks are a bit different with size after lifts, but with that much lift on a 4wd I know you could fit 37s, probably 38s. I think the CST 7" puts you at a similar height to something like the 6" RCX lift on a 4wd, which you can clear 37's.

Yeah, I think you could easily fit a 37x12.50 or 37x13.50 as long as you didn't go with a really wide wheel, like 12 inches.

Yeah, unfortunately I made the decision to get a 2WD since in Miami 4WD isn't all that necessary but feels like a mistake right now. I was thinking the same with the wheels 37 x 13.5 x 20 but I was told I might have to do some trimming so they dont rub which was my concern then I was told that any bigger would be pushing it and I could start rubbing against the front bumper especially if I offset the tire too much

I wanted to run a 20x12 with a -44 but I dont think that might be possible

On a different forum I saw some guy running a cts 7" and I'm pretty sure 22x12 -44.
he had really wide ass 35s on it too.
