well after riding in my all of my friends lifted trucks , and seeing my buddys truck with a 6 inch and 35's that use to look like mine i wanna lift it . the turck is in sig .

a fabtech 7 inch lift . with dependin on money at the time dual shock set-up in the front with a nice set of ladder bars in the rear

for wheels and tires im gonna go with some 20 inch billet specialites rat tail i think they are with nitto mud grapplers . it came out to a extra 300 dollars to go from 18's and nitto at's to the 20 muds . they look a lot more agreesive .

also ill take the 3.73 g80 out for a 4.10 eaton . then i should level put with stock besides added weight from wheels and tires and sitting higher in the air .

so any comments . how yall think this will look . u think i can cruise down the highway doing 80 and feel comfortable ?

 

A mild lift and some aggressive tires does look good. I personally think 20s and 35s wouldn't look so good, 18s would be a better choice imo. There is just not enough sidewall. If you were going bigger and using some 40s, 20" wheels would look ok.

 

ya today i was thinkin about that . and i was just gonna change the question to 18's or 20's but u beat me to it . i saw a 35 with a 20 and it looked funny . so anyone else have some opions . how bad will my performance lose be ? wont the 4.10's help me get some back

 

Yeah I believe 20's will be a lil to much for a 35 in. tire. And you will love the ride of the Nitto Mud Grappers I have 33x13.50x15's on my Jeep and they ride as good as stock with some roar which is what I wanted. I have a friend that is putting a 6in. Fabtech lift and some 17in wheels on 35x12.50 Mickey Thompson Claws that turned out really good. Or you could go all out like my girlfriends daddy and get 8in Fabtech and 3in body with some 38.5's and ride like a Cadilac

 

lol well im still a 2wd . so will it look better with 33's or 35's on a 7 inch lift with a 2wd . i was thinkin ab out that a lot today to . how it might look better like some 18's and 33's . i dont want a body lift .

 

20's

 

Depends on what you're using it for. If you're gonna be off road then I'd say 18's because you got a little more sidewall with them but if you're mainly on the street then 20's would give better handling. Although with a lift and 35's "handling" is said kinda tongue-in-cheek.

 

well all street . just for looks and maybe some trial riding out in the oaks just because id be able to then . i like the look of the nitto muds and hear they ride really good . sounds no problem to me as the stock generals give some already and nothing the exhuast wont fix . im really worried about the truck feeling like a turd . i dont want this thing to go from being so close to a 14 to high 16 truck or something .

 

yes, if you install 4.10's, you will gain some pickup back if you keep the 3.73 but your mileage will not be the same (will be worse), a part of having a lifted truck.

I would go with 18 and 35's, not 20's. Too big of a rim.

 

18s and 35s look AWESOME. 20s take it too far :no:

id go with a 4.56 gear on a 35'' tire.

Personally, I aint getting no lift unless its cognito or CST. I want to do it once, the right way, and i want it reliable.
