Title: 235/15 Clearance w/ 3" Lift...
Post by: byoungquist on September 21, 2009, 09:37:05 PM

235/15 Duratracs with 3" lift (1 1/2" body + 1 1/2" suspension with 1 1/2" wheel spacers) with fully compressed rear suspension... not much room left for a bigger tire... any thoughts?

i run 31x10.5 ssr's that measure a true 31.5 and they still rub in the back even after some trimming 1.5inch bumpstop extensions.  you just need a bit more lift and the extensions for bigger tires.

A friend of mine at work has 1 with no lift or wheel spacers and runs 235/75/15 with no rub

I run 235's with Jeff's 2" spacers. The only rub I get is when turning.

with the wheel spacers you will get more contact back there on the outside, otherwise without them the tires stuff inside better.  order the bits4vits bumpstop extensions...  nice and simple.  i'm almost considering odering a 2nd set cause i still get rub on the trail and highway once in a while.  they can be stacked together if needed.
