Yesterday I sold my 4Runner, today I ordered my OME 2.5" Heavy Kit, and I am very amped to lift my 60 and get some new tires.
I am trying to decide between 31x10.5" and 33x9.5" BFGs on my stock wheels... looking for some ideas from everyone here.
Here's my question for people who live at or above 5,000 feet. With my stock 3.70 gears and 4-speed tranny, will I be able to run 33x9.5 BFGs and still get up the hills on the highway (like 285 or I70 specifically) at 50 mph? I know I will experience a big final gearing change from the stock tires that came with the truck - would I be better off re-gearing before getting 33"s?
Also, will I have rubbing with the 2-3" lift and 33x9.5" or 31x10.5" tires?
Big thanks!
