35's?

i just got a new set of wheels 17" with backspacing of 4"...im ditching the 20's and my billy's i just ordered icons with the romote resivior with camburg uca's is it possible to clear 35's with this set up?

 

selling the billies?

 

What lift?
3"? I doubt it.

 

It is possible! please let me know what u cut though cause i wannna do the same thing with my lift!!!

 

All the guys running 35's with 3" of lift have aftermarket front bumpers if I'm not mistaken.

 

Anything is possible.... You just need to cut.

If you don't want to cut.. stuff them on, you just will never be able to turn

 

there are at least two people on here running 35s with a 3 inch lift. if you haven't already, you'll need to chop and re-weld your cab mount. there will more than likely be trimming of the rear fender at it's base. if you have the stock bumper, you'll probably have to trim in a similar way up front. i believe the guys running 35s on a 3in have also removed their fender flairs, and one actually cut the sheet metal behind the flare up higher. i may be mistaken, but i think that was relentles. someone correct me if i'm wrong.

bottom line is yes, you can, but you have to work for it. if you're doing 35s just for looks, it's not worth it, but as your getting the rr icons, i have a feeling that's not the case. you're gonna love the icons! did you get the rears too, or jsut front?

 

This is correct

 

^^^^ reffer to Kevin's sig pic.....no flares.

 

Get the 33's and call it a day man

 

Relentless and North cut their metal flares and had their plastic flares modified to work. They both look really good.

and I think allonblack did his to.

 

Yea they did and I just cut the fenders but didn't put the plastic back on.

 

Yep, I was the first and did the flares for Eric (Relentless). North had a shop do his flares that I think are not quite done yet. Those are the only 3 that have moded flares. Everyone else either has glass fenders or no flares.

If you want to stuff 35's you will either need to extend the bump stops or cut the fenders/flares. You can also just remove the flares. Unless you actually wheel the truck it isn't worth the headache.

 

all.on.black, Do you have a writeup on how you modified and plastic welded the flares?

 

get glass

 

Glass might look shitty without LT. Allpro glass could be an option though.

 

Glass looks shitty regardless. But I give the LT guys a pass because they have a reason for it. I would do the same with 35s.

 

No, I didn't take any pictures or anything. I thought about mass selling them but I like the unique look, for now anyways. I may offer flares in the future.

 

Yup, you gotta get the mounts chopped

 

It is possible. I run 35s on walker evens bead locks. You have to do a lot of trimming inside the wheel well, and roll the inner pinch weld over, as well as trim the cab mount. Trust me it can be done.
