Alright, I've been talking with you guys a lot, and lately just started PMing some of you (TOM, TK, thanks so much!). I've made a few decisions and have a build plan for the next year or so, including a custom franky lift. My goal is to get bit enough to fit 32" (235/85/16) KM2s under me, but that is the goal, hopefully in 2 years I will be there. I realized I need a new skid, and I need new sliders, that will be cutting my lift budget. Anyways, I want to know what you guys think the biggest size in the KM2 I can fit under my KJ? 235/70/16 seems the best/only option to me. They don't make 245/70/16 but I believe they make a 225/75/16. I don't see that little boost being any advantage, or worth it... What else could I possible cram on a 16" alloy?

I'm not lifting right now, going to fix up the rest of the ride first.

Well you can still go with a 15" rim, that size is about a 31" tire, so why not get a 30x9.50R15 or a 31x10.50R15?

I love how we are talking about what size you should get not me anymore :( everything is supposed to be about me lol :evil:
