ok guys i have a stock 94 4x4 and would like to know is it possible to run a 31x11.50 on a stock wheel with out any lift, if thats not possible then what is the amount of lift needed,or could i get by with differnt wheels with less back spacing? thats what im really going for a little taller and a wider stance, my friend says he had 32s on stock wheels, no lift, no rubbing i find that hard to belive so i want to here your thoughts

thanks

Trust me mines a 94 with 32s and they WILL rub,however if you go 31 with torsion bars cranked you might be ok,ive got 3.5 backspacing and they still rubbed the fenders so maybe with 4 even on the backspace i would have been better off.

you could comfortably fit 31x11.5 and possibly......possibly 12.5 and with 3" body lift and torsion bars cranked and 4" backspacing you might do well with 32x11.5 as long as you dont go crazy offroading...too much articulation could cause the 32s to rub the fenders which i think are awfully small on a 94,but be careful cause some 32s are the same size as 33s,i measured my 32s right next to a buddies 33 bfg mudders and the were identicle in height.

I have 31X10.50X15 and they do rub at full lock when flexing... but my truck has no lift or torsion crank and they fit well.

Here's my truck.

Yea i would say about an exact amount of 2.5" which makes it sit way taller than a stock 2wd Gen 2 (one of my friends owns one) Yea, Dunlop Mud Rovers... work great in the mud on are quite loud on the road... Just the way i like it.

I would say with 4" backspace and 11.5 wide you would stick out an inch more than a normal tire.
