Actually I did see that, but thought I would ask anyways. Just in case someone had used even larger tires without the lift, thanx for posting the link though!

Tire Sizes

I currently have 90 EB Full size. I put a set of 33x12.5 tires on stock highth, with no problems whatsoever!!!! They stuffed the wheel wells very nicely without rubing. Great for street & highway. I have had a lot of compliments on how cool it looks. I drove it with out a lift for about 2 months with no problems at all. Granted the tires are a little big for doing any serious off roading. I finnally put on a 4" lift on with the intension of going off road. The posting http://www.off-road.com/ford/bigbroncos/bbfaq.html#2 is very informative. They are just playing it a little safe. I had no problems with 33" tires with NO LIFT.

On the back of the spindle there is an adjustment bolt that can be adjusted to prevent rubbing. Mine were welded, so I had to buy another bolt with lock nut.
Hope this Helps.

Are you using factory wheels? If so which ones. I have the 15 inch bullet holes with rivets. Currently I have 31x10.5x15 on them.
