tire question

alright i have a 92 f-150 4by4 and its on 32s i was wondering if i can fit 35s on it without any problems.......if not than what is the minimum lift kit i would need to get.....and who makes a good kit.

The 35s i found r super swamperSx on 15by10 rims and they want $650 for them....is that reasonable?

Do a search . I am sure this has been covered here more than enough. The max tire you can fit without any lift is 33 and you will probably have rubbing issues. If you want 35's you would need at least a 4" lift.

I have 6" lift and after almost a year of being installed the 35s are starting to hit the fender on hard bumps when the wheel is turned a little. I would suggest 6" of lift for 35" tires, 4" will definitely rub on the inner fender and cause damage once the springs settle out.

Swamper SX 35's are going to be 15.50 wide, not 12.50. For those, I would definitely recommend a 6" susp -OR- cut your fenders. Bushwacker claims you can fit a 35x14.50 with cut-out flares (and no lift). yeah, what wheels and %tread?
