Hi. New member here. The above pics are of my 2012 Longhorn. First pic is stock with a 3" rake.

Next pics are of it with Bilsteins set at 2.8" and a RC 1.25" body lift.

Installed 275/65-20 Duratracts.

Honestly I was expecting a bigger difference with a 35" tire. My 295/65r20 Trail Grapplers I had on last summer were a lot taller.

Ya 35’s sound good but they really only measure about 34.5, then when bolted on the truck you lose about 1” putting it around 33-1/2 to 33-3/4.

Your truck does look really nice

Thanks! True, the 35's only measure 34.5" and the 295/60 measure 35.4". And like you said, the tire is loaded down. Overall I"m pretty happy with them.

Most tires of the same size have always measured different BUT its no secret and each tire has their exact size publicized so you should know before you give them your money . Their are probably more 37s closer to a 35 than 35s

Didnt go bushwackers bc I wanted something a little smaller but still needed more than OEM so I think I’m happy with these so far as long as they hold up.

I feel like the only thing I’m initially not pleased with is the rubber edge liner....I feel like it’s something I will periodically have to replace but maybe I’m wrong.

Nice looking truck..... what are the specs of your lift?
Pro Comp 6”
Bilstein 5100s (but they’re just at the .7” setting)
Then the ridge grapplers in a 35x11.5

The only thing I’m thinking of changing now is going from my 1.5” spacers to 2” to make them a bit more flush with the new flares but not 100% decided yet.

Your truck looks great too. It gave me confidence in the 6” lift with OEM wheels and spacers bc of how good it looks!

Thanks brotha, For some reason your lift makes those tires look small Hahahaha but not in a bad way cause it looks great, but it could be the pro comp lift it self as I have it and it makes my 35s look small. I kinda regret not getting 37s but oh well yours and mine still look good.
