Default Will these tires fit?

Does anyone know if 38.5x16 Swampers will fit my vehicle with a 5 inch Roungh Country Suspension and a 3 inch PA Body lift?


Or should I go for smaller tires?

For normal driving they will fit fine, but depending on the wheels you use they may rub while turning and flexing.

And yes, you will definitely want to plan on re-gearing asap with 38's.
