Default Do you think 35's will fit? (picture)

I've got a 96. I got it earlier in the spring and am in need of some new tires. I've already put in 4.56 gears. Here's a picture of it. It's got 33's now. Do you think I can stuff some 35's under it or do you think I will need a lift? Do you think I could go ahead and put the tires on and put a small lift on it later if the need be?

sitting at stock hieght for a 4x4 im assuming? if so youll rub.. fix it economically with a 3" body lift.. couple hun's or more costly but "better" (use that term lightley) a suspension.. between 4 to 6 is my suggestion..

im running 35 on my OFFROAD with a 2" level up front.. bascially sitting just shy of 4" total lift and i rub at full lock full flex on the rubber fender liner ( no rub on the controll arms b/c of my 4" of BS instead of the stock 4.5") i see you have aftermarket shoes on it and i would be willing to geusstamate they have almost the smae amount if not more BS then mine do since the stick out a WEEEE bit!

I figured I could run them awhile until I can get a suspension lift. I was going to go with the 3" kit from Skyjacker since it keeps the rear about 1 1/2 inches taller than the front for towing purposes. I'm sure these might rub on the inner plastic fender at full lock with a little flex, which will be fine for awhile until I get tired of hearing it. I think they will fit, but I was just checking others opinions. Thanks for the input.

depending how far out your wheels are.. a friend of mine can fit 315's (34 1/2) under his truck with just a 3 inch body lift and stock wheels... but my wheels stuck out real far so when i put them on with the 3 inch lift they rubbed like hell.. so i had to get a 3 inch body lift for a total of 6 inches to clear those babies.. they dont rub or aything at full turn
