Default another tire thread :confused:

check out this link...

http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?ti...andar+M%2FT%2B

With an 02 silverado Z71, a 3" body lift and some torsion bar cranking, whats the biggest tire, from link above, that I can cram on the stock rims.

and the same question if I buy 16x10" rims.

TIA...

With a stock 1500HD 4x4 suspension, I was only able to go 285/75/16 ... and I had to trim a little to clear the tires when tuning when the suspension flexes.

those tires work preety well on my friends chevy. I have a set of the geolander a/t+II's and can go almost all the places he can for less money and another 20k miles of life. Just something to think about. The m/ts will drag his through some deep thick mud that my a/t's have trouble with, but I haven't been let down yet with the a/ts.

33's sound about right. if you add some torsion keys you might be able to squeeze 35's with minor trimming
