    OP wants 6" with 35"s on 20" wheels
    or, 3" with 33" tires, for "extreme offroading"

    everyone says 3", 33"s. Or even 3" with 35"s

    he argues for the 6"

    we say DB lifts arent great offroad.

    but says he'll go with a 3" susp and 3" body.

    argues for 20" wheels too

    then reverses course saying he wants 17-18" wheels

    then reverses course and says he wants a 3" susp w/ 1" body

    then tom loses his purse, spiders crawl out of the woodwork, and we get 6 month bans

    And here's where you proved you have no idea what you are talking about. Wheel size on its own is absolutely irrelevant to gearing.
