Post I looking for this setup any body have it?

Any brand of six inch lift with stock fx4 wheels and 35's. I am just wondering how it would look If anyone has that setup could you post some pictures. Thank you

i assume your asking 04+ body. i dont think there is any running 35" on oem wheels. i think the backspacing is wrong, but i may be wrong since i dont follow the 04-08 crowd much.

i have asked the same ?. but with 18s. there are a few people on here that run stocks with 35s and say they have no problem.you can run stocks with rancho 4 in and put a spacer on it to get 6 inches if you want to do that??

I would be worried about excessive tire roll running the stock rims. Go wide or go home.

You are less likely to pop a bead with a narrow wheel. I think he is referring to a wider wheel will increase track width which helps offset the higher center of gravity the lift will create.

I don't think you can run stock rims on a 6" lift...the truck you are looking at is 2WD, that is why the stock rims fit. If you tried to run that same setup with 4WD you would chew the inside of your rims up with the tie rod end, trust me I did it to mine for a few day until I got my new ones on.

I think with some stock 20's you "MAY" be ok, but I don't know....

i have an 03 scab fx4, black w/ a 3'' body lift and 35's. the truck looks great, but you will not be satisfied with the performance on the stock fx4 wheels, i am not. they rub at full lock on roads with a certain degree of slope. i have rubbing problems making a u turn at full lock in a two lane road. for a temp setup, i guess they're ok, south_ms_sprcru. i will take some pics today for you to look at. and yes, i am in the market right now for new wheels, have already made up my mind, and am waiting on the $$$.
