Default Question??

Okay now I am gonna start collecting things I need to put on next summer (Christmas is commin ) Cosmetic and otherwise. Okay This is what I am going to do next summer on a 05 Blazer 4X4. I am putting on a set set of 1 1/2 inch Shackles(soon to be ordered from someone ) then I am gonna crank my T-Bars about the same, Then seriously considering a 2 inch PA Body lift. Now the question I have is how big of tires can I put on my stock Rims(for now) The truck is mainly my DD and will see SOME off pavement adventures, Probably not flexing or stuffing like some of you but I do wanna try some stuff. I want to be able to drive the streets with min rubbing. I wouldn't mind a LITTLE TRIMMING But remember my truck is an s-10 blazer without flares like the ZR2 has. I do like the big wide stance look. Bows head..... Should have ordered a ZR2 instead. So anybody know.

Chris

if you just wanna drive the street and maybe trim a bit... 31's easy on stock height.... if you take it off road, id stick with 30's.... after the accessories, with trimming you coupld easily run 32's or 33's....

If i were you, I'd do it in this order:

1: T-bar crank / shackles
2: Body Lift
3: 32x11.50 tires on stock rims with 1.25" spacers in the rear

Okay I read on the PA site for the body lift. It said nothing about and modifications to the steering(or shaft). If i remember correctly i read somewhere that there is a mod to be done to that??
