    What is the biggest tire I can run with 5100's set at 1.75" and the TSB rear spring?

    Eventually I am going to put on camburg spindles and an AAL but I would like to upgrade my wheels and tires first.
    Thanks

    I have the TSB and 5100s at .85
    No rubbing or vibrations at all.

    looks good.

    I have a set of spidertrax spacers on the way and I am going to try running 285/70/17 BFG AT's on my stock rims with the 5100's at 1.75" . If I still rub after trimming I guess I'll just have to bump up the billy's to 2.5.

    I'm running around the same setup you have. I'll be putting on BFG TA KO 265's on my 16 inch rims.

    ^ Jeff, I thought you were going '35s? That would look sick on your 5100 set up!

    '35s would be awesome and there might be some rubbing but nothing your TACO couldn't handle! :D

    Jeff, just let the tires rub out whats needed.

    265's

    If you want to run 285's, you'd need to go up to 2.5

    Thanks....looks like I will be pulling the shocks apart again.
    At least now its gonna be a piece of cake since I know what I'm doing.

    Is it pretty easy to pop off the snap ring on the 5100's? Any particular tools required?

    I am pretty sure you can also run the 265x75x16 with the OEM setup also. In case you need to get the tires or something before you can get the 5100s.

    Running 285's @ 1.75 will run into a lot of rubbing.
