4" lift what size of tires will fit?
 
Hi new to this site. I have a 2000 TJ with a 4" suspension lift and was wondering if anyone has been able to run 35s.
Any input would be appreciated
Brad

35x12.5r20 ?? Are you sure of the last number?? 35x12.5r15 will fit without any rubbering on offset rims of min 8".also extend you bump stops or put longer ones on... as on stock rims you will rub...you will need wider flares to cover them. Most of the problems are when your offroading and have disconnected your front end and the wheel goes up into the fender well.

also depends on tire mfg's spec for tire and rim width....10" rims will usually drop the tire height by 1" to 1 1/2 too...but ------ out the footprint

20" rims on a Jeep? Why?

BRAD 05-13-2010 08:55 PM

Re: 4" lift what size of tires will fit?
 
I had the rims, so why not? Got 35" Mud Grapplers for them and it looks great. Will let you know after wheeling.

Better upgrade your spare so that if you need it you don't bugger up your T/C

jeepjones 05-14-2010 09:15 PM

Re: 4" lift what size of tires will fit?
 
Definitely to shiny for me but the mud should dull them up pretty quick anyway. Very good point about the spare, I wouldn't want to be 20km into the bush and blow a tire.

BRAD 05-15-2010 09:59 AM

Re: 4" lift what size of tires will fit?
 
it is a project, not finished. spare is definitly on the list

Re: 4" lift what size of tires will fit?
 
what back spacing do you have? a35 inch tire on a jeep should have 3.25 to 3.5 inches of back space

Try measuring the tire horizontally cause when its on the ground the weight of the vehicle is compressing your tire and of course its gonna be shorter than the actual tire diameter.


And BRAD, I dont care what anybody says, your jeep looks sick. I hope your still with this forum.

Re: 4" lift what size of tires will fit?
 
Most tire manufacturers will say it's a 33" tire, but they are actually a 32" or a"32.5. They're are actually very few that are exactly the size that they say they are.
