I have an f150 lariat screw, and i just put 165/70/17 like a month ago , looks great but the thing is, im going to add a 3 inch body and 2 inch spacers this christmas. Should i go bigger or just keep the tires i have now?

 

I hope you mean 265/70/17

I would think that would look pretty small with all 5 inches of lift.

 

ha yah 265, any suggestions on what to do??? I dont want to lose these tires cuz three brand new but i want to go bigger.

 

i have the 3" body plus 2" spacer i went with 35x12.5, but i dont think anything smaller would look good with that much lift, might be able to get away with 33x12.5 on a 10" rim

 

Thats exactly what i want to go for but i just do not want to have to buy brand new tires when i just spent 800 like a month ago on 265/70/17 Bfg all terrains. Im wondering is there any way i can sale them for the same price or something anyone have an idea on what i can do??? Also how much did u spend all together on the 3 inch body and 2 inch spacers? Did u install them urself or had someone do it?? Looks great!!

 

What year is your truck? Is it a 4x2 or 4x4?

 

F-150 screw lariat 2001 4x2

 

You will be ok. It'll look pretty much like a stock 4x4 with the torsion bars cranked up.

 

Im new to the truck world so could u explain to me how i would crank the torsion bars?

 

You can't because you have coil springs. The 4x4's have torsion bars (which have adjustable preload) up front instead of coil springs. A lot of 4x4 owners will crank up the preload on the torsion bars to level their trucks or gain a little extra clearance for larger tires. Basically, cranking up the torsion bars does the same thing as adding the coil spring spacers to your 4x2 truck.
