lift kit help

if i have a 3' lift on my 05 taocma can i put 35' tires? or what size can i put on

 

Oh dear, this is going to be bad...

 

and why is that

 

35 foot tires are gonna destroy your mileage....

 

so im amusing 33s would be best @phx13

 

lol...prob means just a common newcomer question and the guys on here are ball busters to say the least. Don't shy away though, tons of info here! Just dish back out what they give you!...lol!

3 inch lift and tires - things to think about _> power. If you go up in tire size, you will loose power. In order to overcome this, guys re-gear their differentials (which can be expensive). You can go up to 32 or 33s without too much loss of power, but some automatic guys complain about the tranny shifting too much with 33s and stock gears.

Other stuff: 3 inch lift means potential alignment and drive train vibration issues. These things, if they occur can be overcome with aftermarket upper control arms, shims, and the like.

Now add 35 inch tires. A whole 'nuther game. Cutting trimming beating possible body lift, spacers, etc.

Start reading, and keep reading until you understand all of the variables involved in a lift and then start to make decisions.

Some guys will say: don't do it! There are too many potential problems...wah wah wah....! These people are girly men who can't solve problems and should all buy compact hybrids.

easy answer: 33"s

35" would be too much of a headache in trimming and driving (re gearing highly recommended as well as CMC and lots of trimming)

 

Yes.

You can put 35" tires on with a 3" lift. It's gonna be a lot more than that, but to answer your question, yes.

 

33's fill up the wheel wells nicely. you can fit 35's but so much trimming and other stuff it wouldn't be worth it. would be better off doing a 5"-6" lift with 35's.

 

37s.

 

Thats only a 3inch lift? even w the shackle flip?

to OP, yes, you can fit 35s, i just kinda finished that project. did lots of cutting and trimming, my stock front bumper doesnt fit, and i still rub a little on full lock so i need to do some more BFH encouragement.
