tire help
Hey all I ordered the TM leveling kit I'm gonna just do that for now and hold off on the body lift. My stock tire size is 265/70/16. What tire size can i run with the TM kit? 285/75/16? The kit says you can run a 32" tire. I went into Discount tire and they had a tire size that was like 32.68 or something like that then they had a tire size that was equivelant to a 32.5. do you think i could fit the 32.68 without there being a rub issue? the 265's i have stock are a lil bigger than a 30". Thanks, Fly

You have 265/70 r16?
The biggest you can run with the TM kit is 265/75 R16.
This tire is 1 full inch in diameter larger them your stock tire, and 1/2 inch taller on the sidewall, which will give you an additional lift of 1/2 inch. Anything larger is going to rub. 265/75 r16 = 31.6" tire
I know all this because I had the TM leveling kit, and I have 265/75 r16 tires.
The CLOSEST you can get to a 32" tire, is 275/75 r16...which is 32.2, but it is going to rub.
