How much lift do i need?

Whats the minimum of a body lift would i need to clear 32x11.5 on 15x8" rims with 4 inch backspacing? i have a 1990 v6 pickup. I dont want any rub but if need be i can slightly trim the valence.

Your truck is 4 wheel drive right? If it is you should be able to fit them without a lift. I've got pretty much the same truck and I have 32-11.50's on stock 15x8 wheels and no lift or back spacing. I took my valance off, but not for the tires. I just think it looks better that way. BTW they dont rub either.

With the 11.5 you may get some rubbing.

On our trucks, you can fit 33x10.5 stock with no rubbing issues what so ever. Hopefully that gives you a better guide.
