Bigger tires?
So I did some measuring today,from the wheel center to the bottom of the factory flare is 21''(front and back)if stock is 17'' thats 4'' of lift right? (I thought I had 3'')So if its 4'' I could fit some 32s right?Or maybe 33s with some trimming?Yes I looked at the lift and tire thread just want some opinions.

With the wheel laying face down, lay a strait edge across the rear lip of the wheel, and measure from the straight edge to the wheel mounting surface, that is the wheels back spacing.

you hit that right on the nail, if you get some 15x8 (or 16x8's) wheels then you should run 4" back spacing and with some fender trimming or some bushwackers you would run 33" tires no problem!
