Default How big of tires can i fit

I have a 1999 chevy blazer ZR2. I put add a leaf in the rear which raised it 2 inches and 2 inch shackles. i also raised the front 4 inches so that it is even. recently i just put on a 2" body lift. currently i have 31x10.5R15 tires and they look really small. i want to go with 33's or 35's. im not worried about having to do any modifications because my dad has a very successful shop and we can do anything. we build race cars so fabricating stuff is not hard. if anybody has any input that would be great!!

How in the world did you raise the front 4"? I'm guessing you've overcranked the tbars and would suggest lowering them back down.

Tire sizes have been covered numerous times, do some research on here or other forums. (IMO 33's are the max)

BDS 5" or Superlift 6" will give you the lift you are looking for, there is no 4" lift
