Default How wide are 35" people going??

I want to run boggers but the closest width they make are 14.5".. You think I might be able to run that wide of a tire with a 4.25" offset? Thats the offset that I have now on my wheels.....Thanks for the input

The Toyos are 12.9" wide. I think most of the 35's are around the same width. Stock Bridgestone's are 11.3".

I don't think you'll get the 14.5's to fit unless you only want to drive in a straight line. Even then, that much tire is going to cause problems in the front end.

Why not go with something like the Irok or TSL. They come in narrower widths and are better overall tires, IMO.

I will bet the front diff won't last more than a week running those tires.

And just how slow and crappy do you want your rig to handle on the street?

My rig rides and handles reasonably well for a truck. But I'm selective about the mods.

I'm not keen on mods that make it go significantly slower, it's already slow enough.
