I have 31x10.50 BFG All Terrains on there now. The rim I'm running has a 3.5" BS so I didn't wanna push my luck, I had to trim a lil off my front bumper cover as it is. A 2" body lift could very well be in the future though.

Thanx I'm happy with the way it turned out....still waiting for another rim for the spare tire carrier (was back ordered) and gonna have to put some bush wacker fender flares on it. I also want to put some 1.25" wheel adapters on the back to bring the wheels out some. I can't see how someone can put that kit in within the 10 - 12 hour time frame they figure it should take. I have a mechanic friend that owns his own shop with a 2 post hoist, wheel alignment machine, exhaust tubing bender, and a tire machine and balancer. We did everything there with the help of another mechanic and it still took 2 days and then some. Lots of work but worth it in the end. This is a great site btw...happy to be here
