Lift/Tire Size Chart

[navigator]

Hi Cody, after the original chart I have only added folks that have requested their build get added or had tire sizes different than already listed. I'll add you to the list.

Totally

I did not know you can run 35's on 3.73 gears

Yes, you can, its borderline for just about everything, I have no real power problems climbing I-70 and maintaining 75 mph.

If gearing was lower it would help keep the trans locked up during interstate driving. Anything over 65 n it still wants to drop lockup which heats the trans and hurts mpg.

This by a long shot, without the cooler, a 15-20 min drive would bring the temps in the trans to 220+. I can't say much about mileage, I think I've only calculated it once, usually my mindset on it is, "is the fuel gauge above half? Yes=good no=get gas". My next upgrades are going to be a 8.6 with 4.56 regears.

I was about to ask that question, I have my 265/70/17 and I noticed that I have to rim my inner front fender.
Thanks

I had to too.

I had to hit that lower support arm with a hammer a few times but no trimming required.
I'll update the charts to have a ? because some need trimming and others do not.

I trimmed it right behind the support arm... a pie shape, about .5" at the widest. Not a big deal at all. Not even sure I can call it trimming.

Just to add to the fit guide. I have 20x8.5 with 15 offset. Tires are 275/55R20. They clear the ball joint with no spacers. Had to do very minor trimming. I do have 2 1/2" suspension and 3" body lift. 32x11

I have 285/70-17. Spacers. +12 offset. Over 6" total lift. No trimming needed yet.

Ok every one, here's the deal. I am going to leave the 3" suspension and 3" body lifts on, but the 35" are off and up for sale. I am puting on NEW fenders, and want to use the tallest tire I can, without having to cut the fenders. Cutting plastic is fine since most of it is already cut or gone. I will need spacers I think, so I am also willing to trade my 35" rimes and tires for a set of H3 rims and whatever the cost of the tires. Or what ever I am trying to say.... if you had questions or a comment, just hit me up.

Make a for sale thread you should get a bite

I looked at the chart, and I'd like to ask a question: Can I get 265/65r17 to fit on a stock 06 TB LT? I'd like to step up in size but I am not ready for a lift. Having read the chart, it says N for 2,4,6,8 in lift. There is no one to confirm (by name on the right side of the chart) that they will fit. Can someone give me a little clarification, as I might just be misunderstanding the chart?

yes but check out the other threads. Stickies under wheels/tires. That size is 30.6" the max tire size that will clear the upper ball joint with out spacers but some tire pattern might hit UBT.

you won't need a lift but depending on your actual tire size you could need wheel spacers.
You are likely fine unless the tires you pick run big.

Thanks for the response guys. I will update when I decide to get tires. Should be shortly.

to add to this 265/60/18 on factory Denali wheels barely squeaks by. Might grind a bit to make me feel better. Stock everything at this point til my MarkMC lift goes on this weekend along with Z71 springs. It has about 1/4 of an inch space actually, but hard to tell from the angle of the shot. Cooper Discover AT3's.

Hi, Mike! Thanks for joining, and adding to the data base. Saw this pic on GMTN.

[sarg]

Thanks Roadie and thanks for all the advise in so many threads. It has been helpful in planning the future of the truck.

[DustinC1989]

I've been running 265/60-18 Hankook Dynapro AT's for awhile now, have about the same clearance.

Very curious to see how they look after the lift, be sure to post pics
