So I got my hands on some Toyo's 325/60/20's

Big Dirty has a 6" lift and right now it is sitting on 275/65/20

I picked up a set of (used) Toyo Open Country 325/60/20 yesterday locally for a good deal (I think)

I put one up next to the front tire and I really don't think they will make it, but I was wondering if someone has put these size meats under a 6" lift?

I am thinking about just going to the local tire store and have the fella take one old one off the front and put the Toyo on there just to see if it will work.

you'll fit just fine. that will fit my 4.5" lift as well. depending on rim setup, you can stuff a 37" tire on your lift

update ....... it appears that my rims are not the best back spacing. Tires are rubbing just before full lock.

I know I have lift because there are blocks in the rear and some sort of coil spacer up front.

I am going back to the original tires size and call it "happy"

Are you sure its a lift kit?

I believe you would need a whole lift spring for 6inches, not just a spacer

I am really not sure bud............

I do know that there are lift blocks in the rear (about 6" worth)

I try and get a pic of my rig in a few

Wow, thats such a pretty looking truck.

I am not sure that it does have a 6inch lift kit in it though.

They could have added back blocks, and just leveled out the front end, but by the looks of it, it looks leveled.

Which if they just added blocks to the back, and put a small leveling kit in the front it would have a rake to it, since they dont make any leveling kits bigger than 3 inches I belive.

Thanks


yeah......love the truck.........always wanted one.

it has its quirks (still working on), but I love it.


what do you mean by (rake) ?

and yes ....... blocks in the rear and about a 3" spacer in the front coil's.


EDIT:

figured it out ......... Rake = rear of truck being higher than the front

I'm usually a pretty good guesser but that's a tough one...definitely not a 6" lift though. Maybe a 2.5 or 3" front spacer with F-350 rear blocks?
