Lift + Bigger Tires or No Lift + Bigger Rims and Low Profile Tires?

Yeah, and while your jumping shit you can destroy your suspension. Thats a much better plan. Its not that hard to keep your wheels looking nice. As long as you're not a retard and dont curb the shit out of them.

and depending on how low profile the tires are....lol, you and me both know what arkansas roads are like. potholes ftl. but i know there are some worse places out there.

20'' with 32" mudders....I think it looks good if you know how to pick rims.

4WD = lift2WD = big rims

what he said.

if you are going to lift it, 8 inch susp. 4 inch body with 16x12 wheels and 16x10.5x31 tires. my friend has this setup on his tacoma and the truck is sick...

that is not how high flotation tire sizes are are made. and no one to my knowledge makes a 31x10.50R16. maybe toyo or something

anyway

dude get like a easy 4 inch lift in the rear with some cheap air shocks and use some twisties and block in the front to add a four inch list then get some cool looking 15's on it and go with a 31x10.50R15 BFGoodwrich all terrain T/A KO. it will be like a $600 for a set of four and they are awesome tires. any GOOD tire on a 20' is gonna cost you like $800+. you could probley get some cheap *** goodyear eagles but those tires ****. or you know what if you go with the rims try to get some dunlop DZ101's.

i like to do both so i did blacked out 18s and 215/55/R18 its a medium tire size nice look

that tire would be way to skinny for a 18 to look nice on. idk if you could fit something that skinny on a good 18

31 x 10.5 r16 is the equivelant of 265/75/16 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

high flotations measure tires still aren't made in that size

I had a ford explorer lifted 5 inches with 33/12.5's, with the 4.0L v6, and it did not like those 33's, thats for sure. It looked pretty **** good, but the tires definately took their tole on the ****** and whatnot. The ride was also much, much more loud. I would have to turn my stereo quite a ways up to block out the road noise, and thats with almost 200sq ft of edead deadener

My avalanche right now has low profile tires on it and rims, and also looks **** good, but rides a lot more quiet and doesnt kill the truck. I have 120sq ft of raamat bxt and 7 yards ensolite, and it rides real quiet.

from an audio perspective, i'de go without the lift. the road noise sucks from big mudding tires (assuming you'de get an aggressive treaded tire), plus the life of your truck will be longer with a smaller tire if you went with some rims.

who said he needed high flotation tires.

and that post was more so intended to disprove your completely wrong statement that no one made that tire size.

someone said his friend had a 16x10r16. i said that is not a tire size. i never said their wasn't equivalent sizes. as far as tires made in high flotaion sizes a 31x10.50r16 does not exist. don't be a d-bag

 

[Trez0r 10+ year member]

hmm, why not just lift the back and put big tires back there and lower the front and put 22"s up front.

that would look schweet!

im not being a "d-bag". im just being correct. acting like you were correct when you werent is acting like a dousche IMO. but anyways, you have corrected it now, before you were still wrong though.

dude why are you picking a fight over this? 31x10.50r16 is not a size. i said it is not a size. bottom line is it does not exist i am not wrong in the slightiest. there are equivilant sizes but a 265/75/16 is still not exactly the samesize tire.
