What size can I go with my lift? PICS ANYONE?!

I just put a leveling kit on my 02 king ranch and I kep hearing that even without any other kind of lift that I will be able to fit 33's without any rubbing. This true? does anyone have pics and also what tire do you suggest?

If its a 4x4 more than likely you could fit 35's.

Not on an 2002. First of all, is it 4x4 or 4x2? I am assuming 4x2 because you said leveling kit.

The OEM 265/70-17's tires are essentially a 32x10.50 tire. You can easily fit 285/70-17 (33x11.00), 305/65-17 (33x12.50) or 295/70-17 (34x12.00) tires. You don't need a leveling kit because the front ride height of your truck is adjustable by the amount of preload on the torsion bars. You can even fit 315/70-17 (35x12.50) tires using the oem wheels but there will be some minor rubbing on the frame at full steering lock.

Wandell,
