new tires?

Post by T-bone02 »

For right now i'm gonna leave my crew on the frame, a body lift maybe next year. Just curious if I can fit 30*9.50*15's under it with out any rubbing or loss of articulation with It sitting stock? I thought about buying a set of cooper disoverer radial st's. Pretty good looking tire I thingk. A little more aggressive than the all terrain but not a mud tire. Right now I've got the stock 235*75*15 good years on it.

Top_sgt is running that size on a stock wheel without any issues but, all manufacturers have different diameter tires. Your Cooper could be 29.2" or higher. You can look at the diameters on www.tirerack.com to compare the diameters.

I understand. I had forgotten when he got the tires and you are correct, it was after the BL.

Man that b/l makes a huge difference, great looking truck Crew. By the way what brand b/l did you buy and how $$ did you spend total on kit and install?
