H2's + 4" Lift = 35's or 37's

[jlcook]

I've got a line on a set of H2 wheels, no tires, to replace my stock PYO's. I currently have 315/75R16 BFG KM2's on PYO's (I know they're to narrow, the PO had'em on there when I bought it). The measure out to a true 33 inches tall mounted on the truck properly aired up. The 315's are supposed to be the metric equivalant to a 35. My question is can I fit 37x12.50R17 on H2 wheels by; a) cranking the tbars, b) trimming the bumper/valance and fender, or c) a combination of the above? If anyone has any pics of 37's or 35's on H2 wheels with a 4" lift please post'em. Thanks.

You do not want to crank the T-bars as it puts way way to much stress on the ball joints and other components....to fit a 37" tire on a chevy properly you need an 8" lift....to fit a 35" tire properly you need a 6" lift....a leveling kit will get you a 33" tire

IIRC, someone does have 35s on a 4" lift. There is just a little extra trimming involved.

the difference between a 4" and a 6" lift actually only works out to be like 1/2 and inch....the 4" kit is a waste of money IMO...not saying they are junk just a waste....but a 6" kit and run with it....In most cases the 4" is just as much if not more than a 6" kit
