6" Lift, Tire Size Recomendation

6908 Views 28 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  ttodd1292
I have a 2001 2.4l 2wd frontier. I have a 3" body lift and new UCA's and Shackels. Making it 6" in the front and 4.5" in the back. Now i know that bigger tires will slow me down so im gettin a wep-r intake and pacesetter headers to make up for the lost HP. I want to run a MT tire and Cragar soft 8 wheels from summit. I want to know if you all have any idea of what size tire and wheel combination would be the best for my truck. I was thinking of 32x1100x15 on 15x8 wheel.

Thanks for any help.

research, trial and error?? idk man 32 seems small. even with a header and cai its gunna be a turd. no offense. but your gunna be workin that poor thing hard with big tires.
what if i went to a 16x8 wheel and ran some other tire size?
that would just be heavier?
does 1" of wheel weigh more than 1" of tire?

i figured it would reduce the load if there wasnt as much tire being pulled around. im not very smart at this stuff thats why im on here.
well you may have a point there, but im sayin rather you go 15 or 16 inch wheel and whatever tire size you choose-i dont think they are gunna be that much different in weight? i could be wrong here.
im thinkin maybe a 33? or heck a 32 may be just fine for the 2wd im used to 4x4 and how they sit higher, so in your case with 6" i bet a 32 may not look bad


but yeah we need some pics
