I just saw a Chevy Tahoe Lifted by pro comp and it had 35x12.5/R15's (super swamper or somthing) on it and they looked pretty wide on it, good and stable. I was wondering if the BFG's 35x12.5/R15's would look or be that wide on my truck when I lift it. Any feedback?

Im going to lift my car 8.5 inches (5.5 sus. 3 in. body) and I am wondering if BFD (mud) 35x12.5x15's will be wide enough for stability purposes. Its usually a daily driver so I need a tire that will corner well, and not wobble or shake on the freeway. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED! thanks

I am now comtemplating BFG 35 mud's or just get a 2 inch body lift (w/my 5.5 suspension) and put on 34 inch super swampers. Any Help?
 






Kial,
From what I've seen from Interco Swamper,they only make a 34/9.50. I maybe wrong but the explorers are pretty heavy weight 4x4s. I don't believe the 9.50's are wide enough to support on the explorers weight in mud or sand.

Kial- If you are looking to still be able to corner well, then dont get that much lift. Alot of the people from this site are running 35inch BFG's and they dont seem to have a problem. If you are still planning on taking turns at high speeds then it wont matter what tires you will get "you will role" Just my 2 cents...

Im going to go with the 35's Mud. IS 3 3/4 a big enough offset? thanks guys for your input =)
