Gu st 4 inch lift with 35's

Post by evo wagon »

Hi guys, I have got a 99 gu st coil ute, which I have just fitted a 4 inch lift into. (took out 7 inch lift) My question is its still got 35's on it would they rub under flex at all? , or will I need to drop tyre size down. The reason it has 35's is the rims I have have the offset to clear the calipers. Any info would be great as it is doing my head in.

Some people can fit 35s with 2 inch lift.
depends on offset on rims
also how much up travel you have(on the rear i lifted the bottom shock mount)BUT yours should be ok to clear 35s

my 35s rub a tiny bit at the rear on the chassis.

what castor correction, is the diff pushed forward? 35's will rub on the back of the front guard/flare. nothing that an anglegrinder and hammer cant fix (1x 1.5in cut and a fold)

They might rub on full compression. but just extend your bumpstops or use 80 series ones.

Mine fit with a 3in and lancruiser offset (track 2) rims.

Chuck em on and see.

The rims I got are 15x10 with 0 offset. I have the superior drop boxes fitted.
