with a leveling kit, and if its a 4x4, and you keep stock rims you can clear 35's

actually romeosoldier cleared 36's with just a leveling kit. you need wheel spacers for those though

33's will clear easily with it stock and not hinder you at all. I had 33's before lifting and did a good bit of hard off-roading with no issues. You can clear 35's with a level kit and it'd be fine for normal use, but will rub a little when you cut it all the way. It will also hinder you a good bit if you take it off road on all but easy trail riding. Even with a level kit, I'd recommend 33's if you plan on any type of off-road activity...

i didn't need wheel spacers to clear them...they cleared..oh so barely did they clear......I put the wheel spacers on it when I put the 3" body lift on....it just lookd better with them on and maybe with a lil flexing it would be ok off road.....and the brand of spacer is "UNKNOWN" some guy local here makes them himself as I was told today....when i asked what brand they are....I picked up one of the ones off the shelf they had and wow...a huge difference...my spacers prolly wiegh round...5 lbs a piece!! those that I picked up where very light...i wouldnt trust them others....but mine....I trust them. I've towed with them....and played with them.....no problems...and no readjusting the tightness either.....
