Turning Radius
 
Hey everyone, i've asked this question in other posts but no one has actually responded so i though i might have better luck in a new thread.

Im considering going to 35s but would like to know how much the turning radius increases with 35s on, without having any rubbing? by that i mean having the wheel turned as far as possible without the tires rubbing, from what i have understood so far, 35s will rub a bit at full turn.

can someone help out with this question? thanks!

Just so you know that someone read this, I have, but am of no help. I run with 33's on 20's.

I've never measured, but I'd say I lost less than a foot of radius.

a foot?!, thats not bad at all, should still be great! thanks for the response! that makes me feel beter about getting 35s, because i love the tight radius of the 3, would have hated to ruin it, but it doesnt seem like it will be a problem. thanks again all!:excited:

beebs is really close , its not bad ;) the 33's will leave marks on the front sway bars also in extreem wheelin situations . :beerchug:

the extra ground clearence is great especially if you have under carriage protection :excited:

Just remember that women aren't very good at spacial relations, so figure you'd lose about 6ft.:giggling:

Mine turns on a dime with 32's, maybe that's a bit exaggerated:)
