Cheers guys dont look to sad at all dont think i will bother with the tyres for now :thumbup:
-
Also how much does it change the handling cheers

Very slight increase in body roll but you get used to it and I never have a problem with it, can drive fairly quickly through bends etc, it's all about knowing the vehicle and not pushing beyond it's limits or yours :shock:
-
My Handleing improved when I fitted the lift but then again my old springs and dampers were totally shot :lol: :lol:
Less body roll too :dance:
-
can live with the body roll

What he said, I think it drove better once the bigger tyres were fitted but tbh its personal preference, the thing to do is try it.

This is my Truck fitted with 235/85/16 and a 2" lift, next to my mates motors running the same lift but 235/70/16 tyres you can see the height differance. Give me about 2" more clearance :dance: Only mods to body work is a camel cut to the real and a little trim to the front bumper, although the camel cut is just a precaution as it had not rubbed at all :grin:
As for driving on them, i have noticed that it handles better than before as the standard springs seem to wallow alot where as these dont :clap: Next thing for me is the removal of the anti roll bars but i have been told this wont change the handling much at all just give me more articulation :shocked:
I cant wait
