Default Can I do it

Alright I'm dyin here. I have 4 brand new 305/70/16 BFG mud terrains siting in my garage along with a 2 inch suspension lift for my 2000 4X4 ram.My schedule is not allowing me to install the lift, with my kids, (WIFE) and all. Does anyone know if I can install my new tires and not have any problems with them. I wont go wheeling again untill I get the lift installed, so I'll be highway driving untill I get the time to do the lift. So will I have any problems running these tires......for now. Thanks guys

Should be *OK*
I've seen lots of stock rams with 305's. Expect some rubbing at full lock though.

since it is a 4x4 you should be able to clear them but but rub some at lock.

It should only take an afternoon to install the lift though.

just unbolt the shocks and the axle will hang far enough to put in the spacers.
