Yes backspacing matters. I have 2' bl, 2' shackles, and rub offroad with 30x10.50s.

I run 31's on the factory wheels without any rubbing issues. 32's would fit on mine with a little minor fender trimming.

What are you driving, with what options, and what modifications?

http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...Blazers005.jpgSorry I should have clarified. That is on my 95 Chevy Blazer LT 4wd 4dr. My factory tbars were shot and it rode like a boat. So I went junkyard diving and found the beefiest tbars I could find on aBlazer. Yes theycome in different diameters. I got some off a 1999 or 2000 Blazer and installed them on my Blazer. The adjuster bolts are run all the way OUT. I also put a homebuilt add-a-leaf in the rear. No rubbing and no trimming. Also here's a pic showing the height of the top of the front fender lip to ground on it.

Forgot to add that I had also replaced the factory rubber body mount bushings with some urethane body mount bushings. If your body mount bushings are wore outlike mine were you'll gain a little extra height by replacing them with some urethane bushings.

Ah, ok, so not stock. Your truck looks good!

Really I think you can make 31's fit with just a 2" body lift even if everything else is stock, but you need to run them on the factory wheels. If you opt for an aftermarket wheel you'll have to trim the rear of the front wheelwell openings. OH and thankyou for the compliment.

So whats a little trimming! :D

I am getting ready to install my BDS 2 inch body lift (Waiting for it via UPS, the most nerve racking part)

After thats installed, I will be throwing on my 31 x 10.50 tires on aftermarket rims. Also have 1 inch adapters off the hub to mount these puppies on since their bolt pattern is 4.5 but any hoo.

If I see a little rubbing, we will trim which is no biggie. I doubt that I will have to though, we are going to do a small suspension lift with boosting up the front via the bars and add a leafs in the rear. But I will take pictures with just the body lift first to see how it looks and some measurements.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssss.
