Tire Size

Post by SONOMA915 »

Does anyone know the biggest tire I can run with stock suspension and Skidz flares? After installing the flares, my tires look a little small. I have 1.75" wheel spacers on the back. Thanks.

that sounds about right.... my 30x9.5s have had no major rubbing issues, and i have no lift or cut-outs

Rock was running 31x10.5x15's with just the cutout flares....so you should be fine too. You'll rub the frame unless you use spacers in the front.

I'm pretty sure that he rubbed like a "mofo" too. That may have been before the flares though? (the memory fades...)

I think I remember him saying that after the flares he didn't rub unless his suspension flexed.
