32 inch tires

got a question for you? my neighbor has a nice set of 32 by 15 inch tires and i have a stock 2x4 79 f-150 with 8x15 wagon wheels. i have 31's an the back now but will they fit and drive good with out rubbing on the front, with out any lift or just a set of taller shocks. my pic is in the 79 area maroon with the camper shell.

thanks in advance everyone

Shocks wont make your truck any higher,unless they are air shocks.
I think 32's will rub on your fenders. you could always cut the fenders to fit the tires like us off roaders do. LOL
hey nice truck man, wish mine were nice enough to NOT want to cut the fenders.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 18-Jul-02 AT 09:22 AM (EST)]Been there done that. 32s will rub on a 2x4 if you hit any bumps or dips. I use to put in coil spring spacers in the front of my old 2x4 and gained over 1.5 of an inch and did not rub any more.



1979 F350,4x4,NP435,5:13 gears,Detroit locker in rear with hardened shafts,ABR in the front,360 with 428 crank & rods,390 HP heads,Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch,MSD Ignition,39.5x18 Boggers,bucket seats out of a Lightning,& a Southern Body that is perfect.
