Default I'm putting 54"s on my truck

Do you think I'll need a leveling kit for 54"s?


Seriously, I can't find this infamous "FAQ" for the life of me, and anything that says "FAQ" is a bad link.

On an '03 4x4, can I clear 33"s?

I'm looking at buying these....

Hopefully, they'd look good on my truck, I have a bastard color that's hard to match up.

You'll see a sticky there that says: Tires (size and fitment)

for 54 inch tires you're gonna need a lift from a monster truck.

yes, you can clear 33's easy, that's what i have and have no problems turning, nothing catches and the gears are doing well.

My fault, I was clicking the FAQ on the black tool bar. I searched "tire" and got a lesson on how to edit and delete my posts.

Now there's a guy after my own heart, and a fellow Georgia boy to boot!

You really want my opinion on those tires?

i got 285/65R20 tires on my truck and they don't rub when i measured them i believe it was 34.6" tire by 11.5" i think. i had to take my front mud flaps off tho or they would of rubbed on them but once i level my truck they should work better yet.

How do they wear? I drive 40 miles to work, ONE way. Also, I'm still wondering how those wheels will look on my truck.
