31's on 4" lift

Does anyone have the superlift (4" front / 3" back) Kit with just 31's? If so could you please post some pics. Thanks.

That would be wayyyyy too small, go with at least 33's. You can run 35s with problem and I think it looks good too.

X3 Stock tires are 31. 32's on some trucks don't look right.

Well ya I dont plan to keep them on there too long like you say cause it does look gay. But I was gonna keep them on untill I get 33's and was wondering what it looks like.

Well I'm not doin this till summer anyway but I still got lots of life left on these bfg 31's I bought last year on my eagle rims. Plus I'd have to through my winter rims on next year with the winter 31's on em anyway. Lots of people round ere throw there stock wheels/tires on for winter with there lift and it does look goofy but is only for like 3 to 4 months. I was just wondering if anyone has pics of it.

Kyle R,

If the information on your rofile is correct and you have an '03 Fx4 Level II then you should be able to to fit 33x10.5 on your truck. Then when you get your lift on your tires will be fine. Or just wait until you can get both done like Shane said. You may end up getting a better deal if you are buying them all at once.

Kyel R

I don't think that 31's with 4" of lift look that bad. I mean just figure if you get it right you'll be able to stuff those tires which isn't a bad thing. I want to do 4" of like and keep my 31's. But I do have a TTB ranger.

im gonna say that a 4" lift and 31s will make u want 33s BADLY. i have 32s on a spindle lift, AAL, and shackles and i think thats a great combo. but then again i dont offroad my truck a lot like most of the lifted members on here.

anywho if u offroad with 31s or 32s, you are fine since you'll be able to flex the **** outta them. if your truck is a DD try getting hooked on the 33s. look beefy and make the truck look good with that amount of lift.

Thanks everyone for your comments and pictures. Like I said All I wanted was pics of a 4" lift with 31's. I was already planning on getting 33's later just not right when I lift it.

Here's what it'll look like.......only with bigger tires....and taller truck......gap between tires and fenders should be about the same with a 4" lift and 31's.
