I have an '02 Z71 and i have been looking into the different lifts that are available for this truck; The smallest suspension lift that I've been able to find is a 4 inch kit, but in the picture that rancho shows (of a truck with their 4" kit and 33" tires) the tires look pretty small. I want my truck to look proportional so is there any company whose 4" kit is on the small side? or is there any possibility of a 3" suspension kit being developed for this truck? Am I the only one that sees this problem? any comments would be greatly appreciated.

You can run 315/75/16(which is a 35" tire) with the 4" lift and it will look good. Or a 285/75/16(33") with no lift.

OK Thanks, I am looking at a few different mud terrain tires in the 315/75/16 size; and I noticed that the BFG's are 34.8" in diameter, the ProComp's are 34.7" tall, and the Yokohama Geolander's are 34.6" tall. My question is whether these size differences are important or will they all look the same under my truck? ------------ ty at 1/17/2003 3:43:27 PM
