I'm not exactly sure what size my lift is, but I think its somewhere around 3-3.5". I have 31x10.5x15 Firestone Destination LT's. They work great as far as functionality, but I would like to get some 33's. These tires work great even through this Chicago snowstorm. I havent felt like I've even come close to getting stuck.

Here you go. Little sagging on the AAL's in back, little rub on lower control arms at full turn. Nothing serious - I love this setup.
