my 315/75/16's have seen better days. Been shopping around for tires, what's the biggest I can go with torsions cranked, 2" spacers and 3" body lift? 36"?

find a true 35" tire since 315/75 is really a 34.5ish... also before you get new tires look at manufacturers specs for O.D. measurements.... since many tires don't really measure to what they say on the side wall... I know the Procomp X terrains measured a lot smaller almost by a 1"..... but for biggest size to fit make measurements when your tires are at full lock to see how much room you have.

woah. I have xterrains. Just measured them, 32 1/2" (told you they have seen better days) so some real 35" tires would be 2 1/2" taller! Maybe I will bump up to 36's.

walnuts, he not as big as you! 37s WILL rub. 36s would be good. but 35s should fit no problem. theres an f150 with a little lift on f105online and he has 35x 12.5 on his stock wheels. seems to work for him.

wish I knew someone with some 37's that lived by me on rims that fit my Expy so I could try them out and see if/where they rub.

or even some one with a f150 of the same year. if you can find some one then that'll work the same.

buy some stock 17s. trade your wheel and tires for some stock 17s. or see what you can get for them at a tire shop and buy the tires and wheels. haha
