6 inch calmini combo tire clearance and camber questions.
« on: November 08, 2005, 05:58:49 PM »
Ok, so i've finally got enough dough to get rid of the 2 inch lift and get the 3. First off, I have the 3 inch body lift and i'm running 31's. My front tires have smashed into my fenders so bad that its broken the bottom mounting screws and the just flap in the breeze now. I'm running 2.75 backspacin on the wheels. I'm wonder if i get the 3 inch if its going to cure my clearance issues or not. I would rather not have to trim my fenders if possible. Also I have the winch bumper and my camber is now totally screwed up my tires look like /   \ and its terrible. I know i've read that the 3 inch kit has the weight of the winch bumper factored in. I would like my tires to look like |   | nothing else if possible without the camber bolts.  Thanks for the help as usual.

it will help, but i think your problem is your 2.75 backspacing on the wheels. i run 30x10.5 on 3.75 bs with no rubbing lock to lock. i don't have a body lift either.

I doubt you will come close to hitting with the 3" suspension and 3" body lift. Here is a comparison of my kick with 2+3" then with the 3+3 lift (compared to a my stocker)

I don't know if its the backspacing, IIRChot rod runs 2.75 bacpacing with 32's and had to trim a little so maybe it is. who knows?  ??? What size are those tires in the photo zig? Your 33's? Hopefully i'll clear the 31's without much of an issue. Im also thinking of selling my bfg's and getting some ltbs. But thats up in the air. Anyway thanks for the help!
