With JBA's 4inch lift, would they fit? http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direc ... ro+MT+RT03 It's the smallest 17" they make for that tire. Next step would be to stay 16" (real bummer) and get the 245-75-16's.... kinda small in comparison. --Flame suit ON-- |

I would venture to say yes....you are talking about a 31.6" tire. I have the 2.5" JBA lift with a 30.5" tire fitted, and I could easily go higher. |

With the right backspacing, I'd say it's doable. |

I fit a 255/70-16 on mine with NO LIFT. It works out to being a 30" tire and I have no rubbing issue. I also have wheels with a +25 offset ... |

The tire you listed is 32" tall and 10.8" wide. With a 4" lift you won't have any issue with the height but the width might be an issue. What ever rim you put them on you need to get something with a low offset. Stock offset is +40, you will need to find something in the +20 range to get that wide a tire to fit without any issues. You will need to push the wheel out some inorder to get something that wide to fit, even with a "lift" kit. Getting a low offset wheel will do that. A 255/70-17 will give you 31.5" height and 10.2" width. That will open up your wheel options a little more although I would still suggest you you get a wheel with a lower offset. To give you an idea my tire is 10.2" wide and my rim has a +25 offset and I just make it with no rubbing and I have NO lift. |
