Default How much lift?

I have a 2003 ECSB 2WD and would like to run bigger tires. I was thinking of 315/75r16. If I put 3in coils in the front and 1 1/2 blocks in the rear would these fit. I dont want to spend 1400 for a 6in kit. THANKS.

I doubt you will fit 315's with a 3" lift on a 2wd with out some SERIOUS cutting. I put 2 1/2" on a 4x4 running 305's and still had to cut. They were on 8" wide rims, and actually measured 34"

On a 2wd I belive you need 7" to clear 35's. I have a 4x4 with a 6" lift and 35's and had to trim some.

yeah your going to need about 7 to 8 inches of lift to fit 315s. you could look into running a 3" bodylift and a 4" lift from cognito not sure on total price but i seen 36x12.5s cleared with that setup.
