14 wides

Really wanting to get a set of 14s but don't know how much lift I'll need to clear. I would be running 33x14s. I'm on a 3 inch body lift right now, I was thinking about getting a 4 inch suspension. What's a decent, cheap lift kit? Can't afford something super nice

 

Oh man. You're gonna get some good replies for this one. Spacers and AAL. only about 2.5 though. It will ride terrible but it's a lift. Strongly recommend saving for coilovers and leaf packs. New shocks. Diff drop. A cheap lift will cost you in the long run though. Just my .02

 

Suspension lift>spacer/body lift

 

You should be able to fit 33s on there now? Not sure how tire width affects the lift height?

 

Get ready for the hate comments, haha. As for 4 in. lift, you'd basically have to buy a spacer and block kit, which is the cheapest.

 

I'm 4wd. I'm on 33x12.50 now and has never rubbed a bit.

 

Really ? No rubbing at all ? Hmmm, well ok anything over 3" & you'll need a drop bracket if done thru suspension because your cv angle will be too much destroying cv boots & the axles themselves probably but to fit what you want tire size wise is going to take some doing & some of that isn't going to be pretty I'd suspect, a 33"x12.50" isn't exactly a small tire...

 

I have a lift and my 32x 11.50 rub just a little. Must already have a lift!!

 

Looks like it already has spacers.

 

But yes you can run 14s and 33s on 3" body and 3" suspension. There was a kid here who did that to an extended cab tacoma.

 

Okay then I'll go with that. Thanks for the help

 

**she**

 

I will say idk how much he scrubbed and he was on 33 12.50 toyos. If you go to like a 33 1400 bogger. You probably won't clear but idk for sure

 

Right now I'm on 33 12.50 federals and have no problem actually I have a bit of space. Just really would like to run 14s.

 

14 wide wheels change everything completely. It'll look badass, I already know that lol just not sure how much turning you're gonna get from the wheels sticking out so much

 

Guess you gave her the info she wanted to hear, good luck with all that OP... Hopefully it doesn't put your drive train on the fast track to fail...that's alot of tire to turn...

 

Yeah. I actually know a guy that put 14s and 33s on a 90s model Z71. He went through 4 hubs(or wheel bearrings) in a week. Sold the truck a few days later

 

It was either do spacers or run wider wheels and everyone said the spacers are just as hard on the truck

 

Spacers aren't going to grenade your hubs/bearings but big ass tires will, faster than some think & I'm sure you'll hear the usual "I run those & never had a problem" haha not yet, & are those same peeps going to be there with a new hub for you , probably not...

 

I used to run 2 diff. sets of tires on my '72 power wagon (full sized truck)a set of 36.5"x14" & a set of 38.5"x14"

& the difference it made on front end wear & tear was huge..
