Looking to get the spacers soon and was curious if anyone had any pics with stock wheels, 245/17's... I will probably get new 265s in a few months, just want to see if the truck will look weird with the extra height and small tires.

Thanks! Was looking to get 2 or 2.25" spacers for the front and 1.5-1.75 rear.

yes it will look at bit odd, no way around that...

your better off getting tires first, then lifting or getting the tires/lift and installing at once...
 






Im planin on gettin some 2.25 inch spacers and still running my 255s on stock 16s
 






2002 On Stock Wheels with 235 85 16. 2.25 lift on front and 1.75 in the rear. The other is my wife 2010. Stock 20" wheels.

first look at pizza cutter 33's boys !!!

Ssgt Pool,

could you take some pics from the front and rear of your X showing off the tire width, and height ?

235/85/16's was a topic brought up about 2 or 3 weeks ago...


BTW your wife's 4th Gen looks great with those rims, and AH ! that paint looks awesome as well !!!!
 






I think 235/85/16=32"
 






They are 32" tall. This one don't show them that good. I can get a better ones later. The wife brags about hers all the time. Not to many like it around here. It is all stock.

was it hard putting the spacers in? and where did you get them?
 






My family owns a fab shop and I showed them pics of what I needed and they made them for me and I put them on. It wasnt too bad. It took a full day to put them in. Next is a custom front bumper and safari rack.
 












Looks good Ssgt. seems the reality of the lift doesnt become super apparent until you park it next to a stock vehicle.

Wow. Very apparant that I hit a Grand Am not to long ago with the front. But you can see what it looks like with the narrow tires.
Kids in the pics are 4'6". So it is up.

I am talking to my family about making them to sell on here. Your right in the pics it is not real noticeable until you walk up to it. Pics just don't show much. Thinking about a 3" body lift also. What I am looking into is making a front bumper, fix what that D@#! Grand Am did, like they make for Grand Cherokees, and a Safari basket. Going to make them too. When I get them done I will get pics up for you all.
 






Where can I get a set of BTF spacers?
