I have 285/50-20's on mine they are 30.5 inches tall and do not touch with modified bump stops frt and rear. I don't think tires any bigger will fit without additional work.

Jarrod,
How tall are those tires and do they rub at all?
Thanks,

Have you modified the bump stops? I have modified aftermarket bumps that I cut to get as much travel as possible and still not rub. It gave me about an inch of extra travel. It might help others if we could nail down exactly the tire limit for a specific drop. Good job.....

Beltech nitro 2 drop shocks work best for me.
