92 F150 4x4 Flareside. I'm Installing A 6" Suspension & 3" Body Lift On My Truck. Will A 38" Tire Clear Without Rubbing? Anybody Who Has Done This Please Get Back To Me. I'm Wanting To Install 38x12.50-15 Tsl Swampers On 15x10" Wheels.

 

Here's a 4" and 35's!!! WOO!!!!! (sorry)





I rub my radius arms at full turns with 15x10 rims, but I am unsure of the back spacing as they were bought used for a dodge originally. I also had to slide the front bumper up in the alignment slots all the way and spaced it out forward about a 1/2 inch.

So doing sophisticated math in my head, 38's are 3" bigger than 35's, so you'd have 1.5" more tire stuffing into the wheel wells, with 5 more inches of lift. I would say they would clear

I fit my 35's on the rear with the stock susp.

 

ha ha another chance for you to post a pic of your truck. I have plow envy.

I Agee with Waynaferd i think they deff. Clear but i think they will rub. I have a 6" susp. Lift and 33s with 8" wide Mickey Tompson wheels and they rub my ext. rad. arms.

 

thanks for you answers guys. so you think they will only rub when i turn from lock to lock or all the time? like when i turn sharp or everytime the wheels aren't straight? oh and nice pic of the truck. i like it. i'm gonna post mine when i get it finished. it's a 4x4 with 351w reg cab flareside. i love it.

 

ive got an f150 with a 6 inch lift and 3 body lift running 13.50 37s on 15x10 inch rims the 38s should fit do u have i beams or a stright axel mine rub on the radius arms to but u shouldnt have a problem stuffin the rubber under there but with the body lift ur gonna have to move the bumper up too ill try to post some pics of my bumper set up with the skid plate which makes it look a hella lot better

Sounds like a good excuse for a SAS

 

Every chance I get!!! In fact, if you see a thread I miss where there's the slightest reason to post another PM me!!!

And although a plow is nice, once you get one your neighbors will expect you to plow for free, pull them out, people will offer you 5 or 10 bucks to plow a driveway which ends up being a mile long camp road, and, ugh.......definately has its downfalls

 

Good lookin' rig! Nice to see another homeboy form Maine! I miss the snow.

idk how diffrent a f250 is but i got a 6in suspension and im runnin 40's with a little fender triming and they dont rub but im puttin a 3inch body too so i would imagine you should be fine my buddy had a k5 blazer and ran 36 with 2in body lift and was fine so that should give ya an idea and i had 36 wtih out any lift and was pretty much fine.... Good Luck!

I'm sorry did someone just say that they missed the snow?

 

Well if your missing it too much feel free to come and get some!!

This what it looks like about 5 minutes ago......I gotta go clean-up in a bit.....

 

My bro in law was plowing in Stockton and Belfast last night as it was started changing over to rain but it was no match for his V-10 F-350.
