2" lift with 285/65/18

[NC-Expy]

Do you guys think it'll look weird?

I have 32.6" tires (285/65/18) with stock suspension and hopefully soon I'll be installing my 2" coil spacers and do a 2" torsion bar twist in the front.

It would look very similar to mine. IMO mine is just a hair on the undersized side. My next tires will be 34's or 35's.

wont look too bad... and you don't have to crank the T-bars to the max... just turn them once or twice and step back and get the look you want....

Do you guys think I should wait until I can afford bigger tires to install them, or just go ahead and do it now and get new tires when the time comes?

i would order tires when you are done with all your lifts... that way you know exactly what size tires to order

The rear on mine looks pretty good, I want to drop my front end back down an inch or so to close a little of the gap. I lifted it almost 3 full inches.

I think yours looks fine. your tires are a little bigger than mine though. I'm doing 2" spacers and probably gonna do 2" in the front to level it out. Plus my tires rub right now anyways so I could use the extra space

32.83 for a 285/75/16, so barely any bigger than your tires.

I think it will look good. I'm considering going the same route. Currently have 285/75/16s, looking at lifting it 2".

Whatever you decide, be sure to give us before and after pictures!

i think you can squeeze in a set of 35s with a 3/2 lift. but if you hit a speed bump youll rub. haha. but with a rize lift you can do it no problem. so 33s or 34s are your best bet.

 

[walnuts4x4]

Solismo would give you the best advice... but 35s would probably be tight unless you trim a lot to make them fit..

Rize....ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!! go sasx2 if you go all out on a lift

 

[panda24619]

sas on a 3rd gen would look sick! haha but thats a lot of work to do that. just do a 3/2 lift and get some 33s. that would look good.
