Arrow Lift Size

I want to put 36" Mickey T's on my 89 Bronco, do u think a 4 inch lift with those bushwacker fender cutouts would do the trick, I like that look where the tire looks like its stuffed into the well, thanks

Ive got a 6" lift with 35's and I dont see how 4" would work with 36's. might get some rubbing off roading.

Yeah, there's no way 4" will get you enough room for 36's.

Unless you use a sawzall after spacing out the bumper. Even then, you're going to rub, probably on the road as well as off.

They'll fit. I know for a fact you can fit 35 X 12.50R15 on 10" rims with only very minor rubbing on the radius arms (only @ full lock, and only if they're extended arms,) and no cutouts. As long as the wheels have backspacing to account for the new (wider) tire's center section, I'd be willing to bet you could stuff 38's under there if you spaced out the bumper and cut the wheel wells big enough. Add in a small body lift, and then it would DEF. be no problem.

Hey Guys did you read his post .

4" w / cut out flares

They should fit without a problem , Like Geezer said a little rub at full lock .

BTW those fitment charts are a load of cr@p . We are running 35x12.5 on 10" rims on my brothers stock height 95 . All we had to do is a slight trim on the bumper and and a little tap with a hammer to the inner fender and the only time it rubs is a full lock in reverse . Even offroad .
