Default contemplating shoving 35s on it

been thinking about puting a set of 35s on my blazer because my front end components only last a year anyway( in 3 yrs 3 sets of hubs 2nd set of tie rods 3rd idler arm and pitman arm 3rd set of cv's") so it cant get much worse. anyone else have this size on thiers.

The biggest that I've ever had was 31x10.50x15. While it ran fine it wore out the front suspension and really dropped the fuel millage. I have since put stock size tires back on.

What lift do you intend to run to fit 35s?

when i had a s10 with 33 12.50s on it i would brake front axles anytime you turned the wheel more then halfway, it was a offroad only truck, never wore out any tie rods or ball joints but axles would break everytime i took it out unless i kept it in a straight line
