I'm hoping to get a suspension lift this summer. i was wondering if i were to get a 6" suspension lift if i would have to get larger tires. i just put on some 285/55 R20 all terrains and they are brand new. can anyone tell me if i should go with the 6" lift or go smaller. any suggestions?

 

If it can give you an idea. 5.5'' of lift (body lift + leveling kit) and stock tire.

Your tire are a little bit bigger, not much tho.

 

cool, that really gives me a idea of what to get

 

Yeah but just keep in mind if your paying someone to do the install on a body lift its prob going to cost just as much at paying for a pro comp stage 1 lift...if you do it yourself plan it taking all weekend long for body lift or suspension and a couple buddies would help.

 

ok well i took it in to the shop today, im getting the 6 inch lift. what size tire should i go to keeping the 20" rims. also how much gas mileage would i lose in doing so? going to the larger tire size that is

 

I'd go with 35x12.50-20's or 325/60-20's (35x13.00).

 

how did the larger tires affect your gas mileage
