What are the biggest tires I can put on 16x8 Weld Super Singles. How big of a lift would i need to accomodate these size tires. I have 285s on right now, but i was planning on lifting it and getting bigger tires. Lemme know thanks everyone.

 

With a 3" Body lift you could run 36" Swampers Assuming you have a 4x4. The 16x8's would accomodate the 36's too

 

could i still use a 3" body lift on a 4x2 ccla?

 

Yes you can still use the body lift on a 4x2. thats what I have. You probably wont be able to run those 35's though.

 

If you want to put 36's on a 4x4 or 35's on a 4x2 your going to have to do some trimming on your fenders. Some friends and I managed to get 37's under a 3/4 ton 4x4. We had to do some cutting and crank the torsion bars way up. Here is a picture of it. Its on the bottom. http://motorhood.com/offroadplace/this-end-up-offrd/

Hey This-End-Up, I saw the pic of the 1991 Chevy 3/4 ton with the 37x12.50R16.5 Goodyear MT's, the "hummer tires." I was just wondering if you had any front shots of that truck so I could see how wide those looked (cause usually when you go taller than 35", 12.5" tires tend to look skinny. And.....if you could, how do those tires hold up? If you can answer these, Id be most grateful. Thanks a lot.
