Mine are about 33.5's, not a big deal. I went ahead and bumped the psi up to 80 in each tire. Now I have 35's
best 2.5" lift for less than $1000

That's a little depressing. My whole life is a lie.

My BFG AT 275s measure 31" on the ground and 32" on the spare. Was planning 315 Duratracs, but that may be more tire than I want in reality.
For the OP, what size lift do I need. Doesn't sound like I should listen to anyone here.
Dont get upset, just try and listen to these guys. There is alot of experience hiding here.

Now that is funny right there. I just aired up the neighbors tire to 80 psi. No really. Heavy truck tire on his 3/4 ton.

Wait. What. They break. Whats next.
Well i learned something from this. I knew inch sized tires ran small, but didnt realize they run that small. I didn't realize a 315 metric was closer to a small 37". Maybe I need to pay more attention.
Took a step away from this thread for awhile and came back and reread it. I am with these two guys who I quoted. I had no idea and I do apologize Eddie. So now that I realized I am ignorant to tire size I guess I need to get that squared away before I worry about lift size.
I had thought a 315/70R17 was equivelent to a 35x12.50. Am I correct in that you are saying a 315/70R17 is actually equal to a 37x12.50? If This isn't correct I am going to have to ask if you would please dumb it down for me. Here is my new interpretation of what I think you are telling me:
315/70R17 = 37x12.50
305/70R17 = 35x12.50???
285/70R17 = 34x??
And so on?
To where my inturpritation was:
315/70R17 = 35x12.50
305/70R17 = 34x12.50
285/70R17 = 33x12
I think this gets confusing due to tire calculators telling you what the actual metric tire measures out to and the standard 33x12.50 has been read that the tire is a 33" tall tire instead of being a actual 32.
I think I'm starting to confuse myself.

x2. I just bought small ones. That way, no issues. Lol. In all seriousness, i think the confusion comes from ego heads w no experience that just jaw about how their pickup truck is on 44s. What they dont say is that if they hit a speed bump too fast, itll rip their whole quarter panel off. bottom line, dont shoot for a number. Form should follow function.
