Smartass. That's what I'm going for once I get the tires at least. I'm doing 3" 32's ftw

Edit: well I say 32s but its cause I'm debating I I want to ditch my icons and get 15" rims. If run 265/75/16 I I stay with the icons

You know I have a spare 94 exactly the same sitting in the lot at work. Since I own it I'm sure taking it won't be a big deal. Oh shucks I sure hope I can find somebody to help me.......

Why do you think I didn't give a **** about ripping it apart

Meh most I'm gonna do is put a proper full leaf pack on the back to replace the AAL and get some ground clearance back. Not even gonna cut the fenders, i love the OEM look too much.

265/75/16's are 32"...that's what I'm going to run on mine. Have you tried searching for 32's on a 15 wheel? You have like 7 options. 70+ on 16 wheel. Keeps your wheels and run the metric tires...at least you can pick the tire you want that way, instead of settle for whats available.
