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

I actually like the sound my MT's make. I don't know why everybody hates it.

Anyways, like it was stated above, if it's a 4wd lift it. Simple as that. Putting rims on a 4wd is not only retarded but completely defeats the purpose of a 4wd. But hey, that's just my opinion, if you like that look, then go for it.

BTW, you don't need 12"s of lift to have a capeable rig. Unless you plan on going through 10ft deep mudholes, keep a low COG and go wide. Especially in a skinny truck like that.

A set of 32's on a nice set of properly backspaced 15's with a 4" lift would look good, and keep it practical.

Do you have the 4.0L or the 4 banger?

Depends on how big you go, and BTW: thats your personal opinion.

this guy shouldnt even be asking on here because you're going to get mixed answers too this anyways. shouldnt be asking other people, you should pick what you like best. i mean, its ur 1000+ bucks ur draining.

go with some 315/75/17 goodyear MT/R. oh yeah

 

[NoobieAudio 10+ year member]

sry i mean 70 not 75. and im not sure goodyear makes that size

 

[Nova76 10+ year member]

you should lift 6 maybe 7 inches and put some 26s on it with some regular tires

or lift it really high and put some 22" off road rims with some mud tires on it

 

[Moto959 10+ year member]

what about just a 3" lift and some nice 30's or 32's?

 

[NoobieAudio 10+ year member]

some 30s would look crazy on that truck expectialy a deep dish like a 6" lip 5 spoke

this is your best bet. atleast for tires maybe not the lift

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.
