The jury's still out on whether or not I will be just upgrading to 33" tires or going all out for the body lift and 35" tires.
From what I have read here in the forums, the 35" tires are a no-go without the 4.77 ring and pinion to maintain a reasonable proximity to the stock 4.35 R&P gearing with stock 29.6 dia tire. Probably finding Nessie in your swimming pool would be easier as I understand it. But I'm not ruling out the possibility.
So for openers here's what I'm beginning with: My VX already with a 3" suspension lift. General Grabber 255/55R18 tires.
I have received the Procomp wheels I will be mounting for either a 33" or 35" tire. 16x8 / 0" offset (4.5" backspace) / 108mm center. In case you're wondering, the outside edge measures 1 1/2" further outboard, the inside edge measures 1/2" further outboard than stock.
Nah, you can't have my old wheels, they're going onto my Axiom.
Now its sit on my hands and wait to hear (its been a week now) from the two outfits who are going to do the body lift. Stay tuned for further developments!
