Default Yes ANOTHER noob tire and lift question

Actually it's two questions, I have a 1" leveling kit and a 1.25" body lift. I was wondering if I could run 35" tires and if I could also run them on my factory 17" wheels.... Thanks in advance!!

Yes you should be. But you might have to trim the fenders? :o and also, yes, you can run 35's on stock tires, your just going o have to get wheel spacers.

You can put 35's on the stock wheel but you will probably need wheel spacers to get the backspacing right. I put 34's on with 2.5" lift and 4.75" backspacing and the rub just a little on full lock but only in reverse.
