new challenge for you guys

im brand new to this sit but from the little i have read i am thoroughly impressed. my mission is to have a 3 inch lift using ultra Goliath wheels 18/9 and using mickey thompson baja atz 33s. my problem is that i dont know what lift to get(its a prerunner and will never leave the street)i dont understand how tire size works(which tires will fit the 18/9 wheels) and unfortunataly i just dont know if it is possible.
PS. not afraid to cut to fit and just for looks so trying to go cheap thanks guys

 

Why are you lifting a truck that will never see a need for the lift? (IE: never take it off the street)

 

Pretty sure he didnt ask to get opinions on if he should lift or not... dunno why people do that so much here... not everyone rock crawls... so annoying...

Anyhow, with the lift, are you looking to also have a smooth ride or does it not matter at all?

If it doesnt matter, there is plenty options that people way more knowledgeable than me can post, but I guess these would come in the form of spacers and such.

If it does matter, you could just get a complete setup that goes from the front shocks and springs to the rear leafs. I personally im getting raised about 2 to 2 1/2 with the OME kit im buying.

 

having a smooth ride is not to important. how rough can it be driving to and from work. it all is going to matter on price unfortunately

 

sorry looking to do it myself and with the help of my redneck neighbor so the easier the better

 

if your prerunner, lift spindles might so the trick.

 

The company itself says 33s will fit with this kit. There is an installation video and all. Im not sure how easier it can get.

thanks man that helps alot now i am just wondering how do i figure out the tire size 33 seems to be an estimate and if the tires are just a little bigger than 33s i will be in alot of trouble with rubbing. i think!

 

If you have the specs for the tire, the 3 numbers in sequence that comes with it and on it. Go here:

sorry if i am being confusing i have a wheel that i am set on and it is the ultra Goliath wheel 18/9. the problem that i am not sure as to what size tire to get. i want a 33 but i am still kind of confused about the size that will fit. my best guess from my browsing is a LT305/60r18 baja atz mickey thompson

 

that would be your best bet. 4" lift, but keeping the stock geometry (ie downtravel and softer ride)...but you mention price, so i doubt you will want to deal out the $1100 you need to for the spindles. hopefully you dont cheap out and go w/ a spacer and trim packer, as this will give you 3", but i can almost guarantee you will rub adn you will have a rough ride, as you will have nearly no downtravel...

 

Just want to fit 33's? get a spacer lift for about $200.

I'd say forget about all that mess and just get a 32" tire (275/65-18)... a 32" will fit without any modification.

Do those wheels you want have any offset? will they stick out or be centered?

 

That's the right question to be asking. OP, you noted they are 9" rim. They should have -12mm offset if you want to fit 33's.
