35's increase height by how much?

So I just ordered some 17" American Racing Chamber Teflons with Pro Comp Xterrain 35's. Should be here in a few days. Anyways I was wondering how much taller is my truck going to sit compared to my stock 275/65R-18.

Here's a photochop of the wheels on my truck. I think they will look pretty sharp wrapped in 35's.

it will lift your truck by about 2" then add whatever amount of lift your adding (suspension or body)

So a 2.5" leveling kit with 35"s should theoritically raise your truck 4.5" total. But ofcouse it varies from truck to truck and with your tires/rim combo

I agree with what bushtree said. I gained about 4.5" in the front. If I remember correctly.

Ya that sounds about right. I believe stock is about 31" tall so you should gain 4", giving you 2" inches extra height. That's what I gained when I gained when I put on 35" swampers. Hope that makes sense to you.

THe stock 275/65-18's are pretty close to 33 inches tall.

Ya I wasn't positive on how tall the tires were on the new models, I was just going off my old style truck, and those were 31's. Thanks for the correction.
