I put the mystery Downey springs and new Bilsteins on the 80 yesterday with the help of a couple of friends. I say mystery springs because I bought them from a friend who had them laying around his shop, and he couldn't remember what size lift they were supposed to give. Well, it looks like about 3", and the ride was definitely much improved. The lift was very easy, went without a hitch. I'm really starting to enjoy working on this thing, now I just wish it wasn't 100 degrees outside here in S. Texas.
Now for the question. What tires? The stock Michelin 275/70's measured out to 31", and it sure looks like I have plenty of room under there. I was really looking hard at Yokohama Geolandar's, the 285 measures 33", but there is a 305 or 315 that measures a hair over 34". Do ya'll think 34 would fit? Any help is of course much appreciated.
