suspention

[tddfj]

looking at the ome medium suspention. any one have this and can you run 33 inch tires without rubbing with ome lift

 

[Lovey]

Yes.

Have not experienced any rubbing w/ 285's.

 

[tddfj]

are you running stock wheels or after market

Toytech lift here. It's OME front coils and their custom rear coils. My Revo 285/70/17's on the alumin Stock Alloys had no issues at all and that was with a combo Expedition One front bumper and warn M8000 winch ((total weight = 155lbs)). Plenty of clearance on that set up.

I'm now have Mickey Thompson MTZ's 33/12.50/17's and I have no rubbing at full flex. No body mount chop either. It's nowhere close to rubbing the mounts. My only dilemma is between the Tire and the stock UCA's I only have 1/4" of space.

New UCa's and I'm golden. Hope this helps

Don't for get to read the FAQ section...it will lead you to other people's suspension installations.

thanks. will do just that. going to get micket thompson classic || rimms 17x9 will these still work with 33x12.5 without rubbing.

I've heard some people have had problems in the past with clearing the brake calipers on the mickey thompsons. I also don't think those size tires will fit without chopping the front body mount a little.

I am running the OME heavy duty coil all around for the weight of my bumpers...... I am running 315/75r16 which equal 35-12.50 on steel rims with wheel spacers...... the only reason I had to cut the body mount was due to the spacer. If you are running stock rims you should never have to cut the body mount with the correct lift/tire combo.....

great info will look into it more at local offroad shop. maybe look for different rims. stocks are ok but get mucked up easy because not deep enough. just trying to eliminate that prob.

 

[MissFJ]

bummer, i guess there are quite a few people out there with the wrong combo

 

[tddfj]

just got done talking to 4x4 shop. 18 in rims are needed to clear break calipers if anyone else is interested in that

 

[Silverdusk]

They told you wrong. Their are multiple 17" and 16" wheels that will work. Don't let them hoodwink ya.

 

[tddfj]

do you know what brand
