you could fit bigger on the back but probably not on the front.....

Heard that the Toyo AT 285/75/17 will fit with no rubbing.

I have plenty of clearance with the 285/70/17 and that was before the Daystar lift was installed.

i hate to keep asking you questions...i was looking to get that daystar kit but heard that the weight of the motor on polyurethane compresses it to much...have you had any trouble with yours ? how hard was it to install? if its not to much trouble post a pic....thanks so much i really appreciate your help

Pic with the Daystar 1.5" lift installed.

No issues to report. A few owners have 100k + miles on the Daystars and haven't had any issues. A local suspension shop did the install and alignment.

Summit Racing has the Daystar lift for $40.
