right, but that 2-3" higher plus another 2-3" higher of cranking makes them fit.

so what exactly do you have to trim and how much?

i have always thought you could fit 35 with only a 4 in lift and some triming but have not had time to try

you have to remember the nnbs 07 and up trucks have MUCH smaller wheel wells making it much harder to fit bigger tires, thus requiring more lift
