Yes, Duratrac 235/75/15...about 29" tall   We went easy on the lift and by using 235's, gearing is good and no rubbing.  Also, strain on steering and drive train should not be a problem.  Remember, unlike the Sami, with the T/C as a part of the tranny lower T/C gears only work in low range for this vehicle.

Ride with heavy duty shocks in the rear is a little rough; but, handling is excellent.

Looks great to me byoungquist.  The arb in the rear will make up for "bigger tires".  No vehicle goes everywhere but I'm bettin your truck will take you where you want to go... and that's the beauty of these trucklets.  I hope you enjoy the hell out of your truck.

If the Tracker won't make it...maybe this one will ('86 Samurai with 16 valve):
