Just did a leveling kit on my 08 explorer. 2.5 rear and 3 front. How big/tall tires can I go? Any ideas?

What kit did you use? The only kits available are the Traxda kits which are 2.5 in the front and 1.25 in the back.

Well, if you're going for a more offroad look 32" tires are the largest you can put under without any major problems. If not, 265/70s are about the largest you're going to get. They're equivalent of 32s. Watch out for the camber problems that are resulting from your upper ball joints being pushed up and out. Not sure exactly what kind of tires you're looking at but i'm happy to help you decide if you need the help!
