3" body lift with stick size tires

Anyone have this lift with stock tires? Does it look stupid?

Stupid as hell......

Here's mine when it had 265/75/16... so just a little bigger than stock. Not a good look. lol. Mind you I also have the torson bars cranked and 2 inch spacers in the back. But still....




Here was the same tires with just the 2 inch lift.... a little better. Maybe more what you are looking for...



and then with 35's... probably about the best match for the lift



So . If you are going to do the body lift you should go for at least 33's. And if you are going to do that you may as well do the torsion bar crank.. ( free ) and the rear coil spacers. ( $50 to $80 ) and go for the bigger tires. At least 285's or 315's.

Just my opinion...

I agree with Lane. I run 33's with no lift and I think it is a good balance. Lift with smaller tires than I have now would look goofy in my opinion.

Just dug this up... stock wheels with 2 inch lift....

Sucky thing is I just bought new tires for it a couple months ago. I was thinking about just a 2" lift rarer and torsion twist in front so I can leave the tires. Thoughts?

Haha! I guess I was typing as you were posting that last reply

 

[Lane24]

Yeah. That would be better , and cheaper for you. I did the same thing. Bought new tires, lifted it and 3 days later bought BIGGER tires lol. You can see the phot dates. Kind of funny. It's best to do the lift, then get tires. Lost my ass selling the old barely used tires.

Date stamp.. 01/04/10


Date stamp.. 01/07/10 lol.
