Default 235/75/15 to 30x9.5x15

Found a set of mud tires only slightly larger than my A/T's. Going wheeling this weekend so hope they do well. I have the 2WD swirl wheels on now and like the offset. The Mud tires have 4WD wheels from I believe a 95 S-10, so they won't be offset as much. I'd like to eventually switch the wheels and have the Swirls on the mud tires and the flat ones on the A/T's.

I did the torsion bar turn and got 1 inch extra on 3 turns. Haven't added the leaf to the rear end yet, but my leaf springs are a little flat right now.

Tasked the girlfriend to take lots of pics/vids while we go wheeling. Looks like she'll get her exercise walking around the rocks this weekend! lol

1 full turn of the torsion bar bolt, as long as everything is stock, is only worth .2 inches. which means that you would have to turn them a total of 5 complete times to gain 1 inch.

I know that this is an old thread and that you most likely have picked up the tires but I have had 30x9.5x15's I on my ruck since 2001-2002 and only cranked the bars and put lift shackles in it 2009 after joining the forum. I had no problems at stock height.
