wrong size tires
You maybe able to get them to fit but...............
Should have at least 4 inches of lift to run them and have room to flex
( which you won't get with a spacer lift and worn springs)
but you'll need to do some creative work and also a regear to 4.10s
I've fit them here with a spacer lift but there wasn't any room for the tires to move, going to the Mall will be ok if you're careful :wink:
can you trade them for 245-75s ?

Gotta do a ton of cutting and even so you'll still rub. Like Tom said you'll wanna regear. Here is a pic of mine with an OME lift, a ton of cutting and 265/75R16's. I would go with the 245's just because 265's is opening a huge can of worms you don't wanna get into.

And of course they never lie do they? :ROTFL:
They don't take into the fact that springs sag, they are only trying to sell you a bag of goodies , they don't care and since they never included grade 8 bolts as they should, have been recalls on those why would you believe anything they state.
If you want to try, Good luck, but be ready to also regear and step up to a real full spring lift soon

From my testing, if you host them on Flickr, EVERYONE can see them on here. I have a flickr app on my iphone that is nice.

Cardomain will work too.
