The Fitment Charts represent tire & Wheel recommendations that we know will fit without rubbing. The amount of lift can be suspension lift, body lift or a combination of the two. Some of you may have seen trucks with tires larger than our recommendations. There are many factors that could allow other combinations to work. Some vehicles just sit taller than others, even trucks of the same year with the same components on each. Some factors such as sagging springs, fender flairs, cutting the fenders, mud flaps, and running boards can be a factor in what could work. Variances between manufacturers also have an affect on what will work. Brand A's 4" lift might be slightly taller than Brand B's 4" lift. The following charts are sizes that we know will fit under normal circumstances. If you have specific questions concerning your application, you should contact a reputable tire dealer that knows tires and lift kits. 4 Wheel Parts and National Tire & Wheel are good places ask these questions. 4 Wheel Parts Wholesalers

Vibration may occur when using 15" wheels due to the positve offset. We recommend 8" wheels for daily driving. 15" wheels may only be used with offsets of 4" or less backside.
Using a wheel wider than the recommended width may cause clearance problems.
