    You go taller without getting a wider track width youre more prone to rolling over. High center mass without wider load distribution to compensate = no good

    Wider tires can help along with the backspacing on your rims and even aftermarket control arms. But honestly youd only need to worry about that if youre getting over 5" of lift and you're not being careful when cornering. Just remember what I said dont cheap out on suspension with coil spacers, bigger springs etc, go with bigger shocks and aftermarket uca's. People have lost their lives cheaping out on their suspension

    I’ve got 295’s and -18 offset. But I will take that advice and get some new shocks if I decide to go bigger, appreciate it!
