Did a lot of searching but can't find much on it, besides requests for lifts with 33 inch tires. Thinking on ordering a 4 inch superlift without the bills as I have them currently on my leveled truck, but am wondering if I can skate by for a little while without having to get new wheels and 35 inch tires and using my 275/65/20 KO2s and stock wheels. I have 3.21 gears and mpg does matter some lol. Does anyone have examples of a 4 inch lift with 34 inch tires?
This is how it currently sets
Thanks guys 232a349c2aa559fdc063cc7f7178ddb6.jpg

Why don't you want to put 35s on your stocks?

It's not that, I am more saying I don't want to buy 35 inch tires at the same time as a lift. And I'd want new wheels with tires! But it's more so doing one or the other first. I could do the wheels and tires or just tires first and then wait on the lift but I'd rather do the lift first and wait if it looks okay as my tires are not even a year old

Oh I hear ya! 34s shouldn't look too bad with a 4inch lift, just look at all the people running bils+1.5 inch body lift with 34s or 35s.

I have a Zone 4”F/3”R lift with Bils at 1.4” ... I run 35’s on Dropstars in the summer, but in these Ohio Winters, I put my factories back on with 275/65R20 Cooper A/TW’s ... Doesn’t look horrible, but having seen it with 35’s and 0 offset, it looks a lil weird to me

You can set the frame on jack stands 4" higher and the suspension has enough travel to keep the tires on the ground. This will show you what it will look like apart from the front wheels sitting a bit further into the wheel wells. It'll look fine imho

Good idea, but I know I at least want the lift. Worst case scenario if it DOESNT look good i just buy some tires lol

Beautiful Truck! When you say 34" are they the Ridge Grappler tires in size 295/60r20? I'm looking at doing something similar. Also, what are your wheel specs on your Fuel Mavericks?
My "34s" are 275/65/20 just for an idea

Yes they are ridge grapplers 295's. I bought the wheels used they area 20x9 but im not 100% on the offset I believe it's 0. They sit pretty much flush with the oem fender flares.
