Hey all,

Well I decided not to go with the Teraflex 3" lift. At least not now. It will eat too much of my budget and will require way more modifications that I just can't justify right now.

With that being said, I decided to go with the 2.5 " lift with Coils and Shocks from Teraflex. In addition to that, I will also be getting their adjustable track bar and steering stabilizer kit. I plan on keeping my stock rims (17's) for now but I want to get as close to a 35 as possible. I plan on getting the Spidertrax 1.5" spacers but I am at a loss as to what tire size and brand. No rock crawling for me, just sand and mud. Any advice would be appreciated. This won't be happening for a least 6 months so there is no hurry, but I like having all my ducks in row and preparing ahead of time.

Thoughts?

I was thinking 315/70/17's but I'm not sure...

What about 305's or 295's?

 

I have 285/7517 toyo mt and love the look. I have the teraflex 2.5 coil lift and added a 1" spacer all around because of winch and bumper with 1.5 Spidertrax wheel spacers



Just last Saturday i got new rims. I now have 75,000 miles on the tires

 

I would say 315/70/17's you could do the 305's but I feel that you would always want to move up if you did.

 

Looks Good!

 

My thoughts exactly! however my brother works for an shop where he installs lifts and he said that a 315 on a 17 has a lot of sidewall and will have a lot of bounce. He recommended a 295.

 

285/75s on stock rims with .75-1.0 inch wheel spacers.

 

I have 285/75's on my stock 17's. I like the way it looks, but they're a little too skinny and lack that aggressive look. I'm going 305/70 next time so I can get a wider look. I like this size because I still get the 34" height I have now, but with a more aggressive stance.

 

Why not just go with a 35x12.50?

 

I have 285/70/17 on stock rims with 1.5" Spidertrax spacers and I also have the 2.5" teraflex lift. Not a bad look, but I agree that they're a little small with that lift. I'm getting a new set of wheels and tires shipped in 2 weeks, if you want to save a few bucks on Spidertrax spacers that are less than 6 months old, shoot me a message!

 

I was told that it's not a great idea because of the stock rim width...
