Lifted Wheel specs!!! Post Yours

So i purpose we create a thread that has information for lifted trucks just like the one for the max stock wheel size thread. All size and types of lifts are welcome to post.

THIS WILL STOP NEWBS LIKE MYSELF FROM ASKING THIS OVER AND OVER.

PLEASE POST YOUR LIFTED SPECS:

Model Year:
4x4 OR 2wd:
5 or 6 lug:
Lift Installed Ex: DB or long travel, spindle, brands, lengths, etc:
Wheels Installed:
Wheel backspacing:
Wheel offset:
Wheel spacers?:
Wheel TPS?:
Tires Installed:
UCA:
LCA:
Front Bumper:
Plastic trimming needed:
Body Mount Trimming or Rubbing:
Picture If You Have One:





General Rule of thumb
33s (285) on a 6" lift will have no rubbing and require no trimming.

35s (315) on a 6" lift will have rubbing and require trimming.

33s (285) on a 3" lift will have rubbing and require trimming.

32s (265) on a 3" lift will have no rubbing and require no trimming.

4.5" backspacing on a 8" wide wheel is the best to avoid any rubbing for these trucks. 4" backspacing would be your next best bet.

These statements are true in the large majority of cases for off road use. Hope this helps and is relevant to the thread.

Great thread, im still deciding what size tires to go with after i install a lift and this is very helpful, i want to keep the trimming to a minimum.

 

got my new truck oh yeah

Model Year: 2012
4x4 OR 2wd: 4x4
LIft Intalled: 6"procomp
Wheels Installed: motometel 4.53 bs 17x9
Wheel spacers?: no
Tires Installed: 285/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapps
Plastic Triming need: none
Body Mount Trimming or Rubing: none
Picture If You Have One:

 

If you want no trim 33"s 255/85/16s are what you want.

 

Model Year = 2011
4x4 or 2WD = 4x4
Lift Installed = RCD 4.5 and custom 4 inch Alcan rear Leafs
Wheels Installed = Ballistic Offroad Jesters 17x9 -12
Wheel Spacers? No
Tires Installed = Goodyear Duratracs 285/70/17
Plastic Trimming = very minor front inside fender liner
Body Mount Trimming = None

 

Im considering going with this size but choices are very limited and i dont wanna run a m/t all the time. Maybe ill save up a little extra cash and have a setup like yours, go with the 255s on my stock trd offroad rims for offroading only, then get aftermarket wheels with 32s For daily driving.

 

I like the thread idea!

I have a 2011 tacoma im getting it lifted 3 inches. I bought wheels today 18x9 what size tires do i need

 

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=53 this might be helpful if you know what diameter tire you want. 275/65r18 might work (32.5x11 roughly), run a search im sure you can find someone on here with that size. What wheels did you buy?

 

Or 275/70r18 for 33+ im no expert tho in still running stock. Seems like most guys on here go with 17 or 16 inch wheels but you will find what youre looking for

 

33s (285) on a 6" lift will have no rubbing and require no trimming.

35s (315) on a 6" lift will have rubbing and require trimming.

33s (285) on a 3" lift will have rubbing and require trimming.

32s (265) on a 3" lift will have no rubbing and require no trimming.

4.5" backspacing on a 8" wide wheel is the best to avoid any rubbing for these trucks. 4" backspacing would be your next best bet.

These statements are true in the large majority of cases for off road use. Hope this helps and is relevant to the thread.

 

The whole purpose of this thread is to answer questions like that so they aren't asked over and over again, but you asked what size you need... Only you can decide that. What tires will fit no rubbing is 265/65/18.
