Question What size tires?

I recently added some 2" spacers and cranked the t-bars on my 93 truck. I'm planning on adding a 2" body lift soon. What are the biggest tires I can fit with that amount of lift.

i'd say with the t-bars cranked (1.5"), and the 2" spacers, then a 2" body lift equally roughly 3.5-4" (correct me if im wrong), 32's would probably be a good fit. might encounter some slight rubbing when in full turn, but would think 33's would be cutting it close.

I was under the impression that you could fit 32s under stock suspension. I figured at least 33s, I could be wroug though.

33's comfortably.

35's if it was me.

Backspacing is key, look for around 4" as a magic number.

I have 33's with a 1" bodylift and some modest trimming.

I say 35's. I little reworking the wheelwell probably necessary. How hard do you wheel it? Tires rubbing in the wheelwells and fenders doesn't hurt, just sounds bad.

i just re-read your first post and i missed the 2 inch spacers and just saw the body lift and cranked torsion bars. sorry for the horrible input. now that im up to speed, 33s would be a good size, and like they said 35's could fit, they'll just rub (which is a good reason to go higher )

i fit 33x10.5s with a torsion bar lift alone and it slightly rubs on the mudflaps every now and then.

I'm pretty sure 265/75 is 32x10.5 but I might be wrong.

33's will fit fine. I had a 92 with 33X12.50's with only a 2" body lift for a while and only rubbed every now and then at full turn(I later went up a few more inches) As for the tire size check thistire size calculator it should help
