35's?

Will 35s fit with zero rubbing?

What kind of tire do you prefer? I only do regular driving, no off-road action for me

Here is a description of my suspension and wheels:

Suspension
3" Old Man Emu
OME N91S Front Shocks
OME 881 Front Coils
OME N86 Rear Shocks
OME 891 Rear Coils

1" Body lift

Wheels
Centerline Hellcat Style 34 16x8 Polished Aluminum Rims
BFGoodrich Mud Terrain KM size 285/75/R16.
1.5" wheel spacer

(unless you meant with no cutting also, in which case, probably not. How much backspacing on those rims?

35s are $$$ to keep confined to the street. But your call.

You'll need to trim the wheel wells. If you're staying on the pavement not as much as for wheelin, but still.

I'm going to stay with 33s, your rig looks nice with the 35s that's why I was wondering if I can do the same...

lets not forget about the gears! though i guess if its for street only it wont be too bad not having much low-end torque but it may put more stress on your engine
