Overland with 3.5 lift and bigger tires

[eckerya]

My overland is just a little over 3 weeks old. Upgrades have been full led conversion up front. Tyger Tri fold bed cover. Today i got the 3.5 inch lift with 35’s on the stock wheels. I personally love these stock wheels. Whatcha guys think?

What width tires. Any re-gearing? What’s the overall truck height?? I have the same truck and just wanted to know??

Also. Do you think 37s would fit on that setup?

What width tires u running??

12.5

Makes me wonder if 38s on stock axle are possible for a DD.

How wide are the wheels? 7.5?

Hey Brother, currently with the setup I have the truck is overall 77" inches tall. The tires are 12.5 width and no re gearing was necessary. The truck easily gets onto 8th gear unless its a noticeable incline, then it will drop to 7th. I know you can do 37's with no issues as far as clearance but gearing will be the problem then.

Right on! Thanks a lot. Well I may just stick with 35s. Not really looking to regear if I can avoid it. At least not yet. And it’s hard to find good shops I trust to do it if I would have it done. Might just run a similar setup to what you got there. Looks

Not too bad. Could be worse lol. A decent drop from the 20-21 I average now but not bad.

Looks great! Do you have wheel spacers?

Hey brother, they definitely did do spacers!

1.75? I’m looking to upgrade from the RC 2.5’ leveling kit to the full 3.5’ with the coil springs. The factory overland wheels look great with some beefy tires!

Yup! The 3.5 is great, my goal is to wait for the suspension to have a year and then maybe upgrade to fox struts. All in all I’ve been very happy and love the look of the stock wheels with some beefy rubber.

Awesome man! Yours looks great! I don’t mind the spacers but at some angles the tires appear to stick out too far.I think once I get some more gap between the tire and fender it will remove the illusion! Thanks again for the quick response!!
