Chistmas came late this year

Well after being on back order since a couple days before christmas eve my tires finally came in!! Even though i wont be getting my lift until march... But i got them for a killer deal so i had to take advantage of it But i just had to post up some pics




35s??? more like 33.5s to 34s kinda disappointing but i was sorta expecting it still kinda a bummer though




Compared to the 31s

yea the sizes tire companies list is bs.
my 35's are like a 34 lol. but it goes both ways. im going to get a set of 36" irocks that are actually 36.8 inches tall. the rim size makes a difference also. nice runner!

Thanks man yeah i heard that interco tires were true size i was actually going to get SSRs before i saw how cheap the KM2s were (at least the ones that i found) you would think that tire companies would get in trouble for being more than a half inch off it just doesn't make since... oh well im still happy haha

Besides a 4" or better lift you better factor in a new set of gears , some pinch weld trimming/hammering even at full lock I still have some rubbing may try the bj spacers to try to fix that. I put 35's on mine with 4.10's for two weeks and it was horrible but after I got my 5.29's in very happy oh ya and that's with a 5 speed.

Yeah i've thought all that through im going to get a 4 inch lift and my next investment will be new gears for sure.

But i just dont understand i hear SO many different opinions on whether its bad with 35s or not... obviously it is definentally going to slow that 3.slow waaaaay down but everyone has a different thing to say about it ive heard it sucks ive heard its not that bad from all over YT with stock gearing ive been doing research on opinions to see how bad it would be.
Maybe it just depends on how patient you are?? It just doesn't make since so im just prepared to deal with it im a patient person anyway

and i have a 5 speed too so at least it wont be as bad as automatics
