What size wheel and tire do you recommend? Can I clear “X” tire size with "X" lift?
We do not make guarantees or recommendations as far as wheel and tire fitment go because the combinations are endless and each combination varies. We typically advise our customers to check on the forums, which serve as a great resource, to see what others are running in way of wheels & tires and what lift height they are at. We find that most on the forums will have photos of their set-up and this can be a great way to see what the end result looks like. Also in addition to asking what wheel/tire size and lift the member chose, it is also a good idea to ask if any trimming was needed for proper clearance.
On a side note, when you lift the truck to be able to put larger tires on it, the ride quality can be directly impacted by the tire chosen. Larger tires tend to have a higher load rating which makes the on-road ride quite a bit stiffer. Some people will contact us after placing larger tires on at the same time the lift is installed and say the lift kit killed the ride not realizing it could be the tires.
