1- a 315/75r16 would fit on a rim and is just under 35"

2- 3" lift and some trimming should fit but it will be tight

3- no idea dont have air ride...

4- under 200.... best bet would be look on craigslist...

thanks.
but you are saying that a 315 75 r16 will fit on the r 17 i already have?

 

[Tigster]

no a r16 will not fit a 17.

Pretty sure you need a 8.5" wide wheel to fit 35's. But you should be able to run 33's no problem on the 7" wide factory rim

well i would really like to keep these rims. what do you suggest.
i guess what im asking is... what is the biggest tire i can put on this rim?

 

[Tigster]

call www.4wheelparts.com they are helpful and sell all the parts you will need to run 33's

dont listen to me...lol missed that typo... meant r17 not r16... so used to people using 16" rims didnt realize i missed that but a 315/75r17 should fit with a 3" body lift and they will fit on stock rims
