03 FXF Screw. Looking for pictures of 35's or 33's, 3" body lift, and stock rims

As title says, I'm thinking of keeping my stock rims which are:



I want to fit a 35 on them, with a 3" body lift. Will this work out well? I don't seem to have the money to put towards rims. Let me see some pictures, and opinions, suggestions, or comments

I put 35x12.50 on my SuperCrew with a 3 in body. It looks good and works just fine. It rubs a little at full turn on the frame rail. And that is it. Sorry no pictures just wanted to let you know it does work fine.

Thanks for the response, all the help is much apreciated from anyone, and everyone. I wanted to get a set of Eagle 058's, and the gf was gunna pick those up for me, but the clutch the the Camaro is slipping so I'm going to have to upgrade that, and she said she would help me out with that. So, going to keep the stock rims, and just do the 3" body lift, and put 35's on the stock rims

I don't have the combo you are looking for, but I have pics of my Screw at stock height with 33's (285/75-16 BFG AT KO's) on OEM and 16x10 Eagle 058's and with a 3 inch body lift.

Thanks for the response. Your just who I hoped would respond. Anyways, my question is really, what size tire for my stock rims. I would like a 35" tire, just because I'd like to fit all the tire I can. Thanks again man

Exclamation

Personally, if I had that truck (Which is VERY clean, looks loaded etc) I would NOT cut corners and throw a body lift on it just so you can have a lifted truck. If it were me, I would wear those tires out...and put some money away in the meantime, and then do it right so you have no regrets. But hey, that's just me

I'd go with a 315/70-17 (35x12.50) tire. Even that is pushing the limits for the OEM 17x7.5 inch wheels. Just a tip, check your local Hummer dealers for the 315/70-17 BFG AT KO's. They are the OEM tire on the H2 and a lot of idiots,....I mean people, yank them off so they can bolt a set of 24's or 26's on their Hummers. (Sorry, but Hummer's on low profile street tires are as ugly as sin in my opinion).

That sounds like a good deal then. The 315 would still be alright on the factory rim, and won't be a safety issue at all. Also, there isn't a wide selection of tires in that range lol, tire rack shows the Yoko Geolander, the BFG TA KO, and the Goodyear Wrangler AT Extreme lol. Any other tires in that range that would do good. If not, the BFG TA KO wins. I kind of liked the idea of the BFG Wranglers, but they don't make them in a 17. How well is the performance of the BFG TA KO off road??? I don't wheel my truck much, but from time to time pull people out of the mud. Thanks for the help. Will the BFG TA KO's be my best bet

The BFG AT KO's are an excellent tire, but no all terrian is gonna be great in the mud. However, the AT KO's are better in the mud than most all terrians.

Hey, thanks for the comment. Here's a question for you. The rubbing on the frame, how bad was it, and was this rubbing occuring with the 3" PA lift, the tosion bars raised, and the valence cut a bit???? I really think 35's will look the best, and I think they are what I want to go with, just wondering how bad the rubbing is
