Some months ago I installed Mark suspension lift on my tb and I bought 265-75 r16 General tire and I love it.
Because human wants always more, I’m looking to install mark 3 in body lift this spring.

I try to figure out if my tire will be too small for this new lift. A lot of you with 3 in body lift have 33 in tire and look really great but I don’t want change my tire again. Not now for sure.

Does anyone have some pics with suspension lift + 3 in body lift with 32 in tire?

I found some built tread with this setup but there aren’t always good pics.

I’m looking for a MDB steel bumper too with Mike. I have to take my decision before order it.

If you have some advise please...

I modified this pic with photoshop to simulate the body lift but it's hard to figure out.

Here's my buddy Cody's (Opeth) TB, he's got marks's 3" lift and 3" BL and the same tire size as you. His front was sagging some here because of stock springs but should help.

I personally think he needs bigger tires also but that is me.

I do have 1.5 inch spacers and wide rims with some offset so my tires appear to fill the wheel wells better then if the wheels were more narrow with little offset IMO...
