I read plenty on a few sites and just went to order my OME 1.5" kit from Rocky Road Outfitters. Thankfully they are a great group of knowledge and honest but told me no where in the hell should anyone say 31x10.5 tires fit under my CRD with just that kit. Anyone have some proof and what exact tire I can use. This thing won't be offroading nor articulating at all. Its a DD and an occiasional curb hopper to park at beach or somethign like that.

Need suggestion asap!

couple of points - if you search on Rocky Road - several folks have had issues on customer service, not everyone but enough to be cautious.

also - you'd get a better response in the main CRD section - Tech tends to be solutions after the fact.

although for Tires sizes - there's also a general tires section and it includes a chart

so 31x10.5 will probably need the OME and pinch weld hammering.
wheel backspacing can be a big issue too - if it's standard center - you'll scrape the outside of the wheel well.

I am running 245/75s on Moabs with an OME lift. Just finished bending the pinch welds and molding the wheel well liner to prevent rubbing. I can't lift it any more or it will not fit in the garage.
