Default 35 duratracs on 1.5" TF leveling kit - for a short drive
So i am getting my 3.5 lift put on Friday night. I have an appointment to get my new 315/70r17 duratracs put on Friday afternoon. The guy at the tire shop was concerned that the 35's wont fit with my TF leveling kit (2 inch front spacer/1inch rear spacer). I literally just need them to fit long enough for me to drive from the tire shop to the garage where my lift is getting put on.

Is this doable? (using wheels with 4.5" backpace). Duratracs supposedly have a mounted height of 33.5-33.75". I have stock fenders.

You'll have no problem. They will rub the pastic air dam at full turn if you still have that.

I have the body armor 4x4 front skid. I'm in trouble if my tire rubs on that lol

You will have no problem. I did the same thing while waiting for my lift and it was fine.

I drove six months on this setup. If I was mall crawling/ daily driving, it didn't rub at all. I have more pictures if you're interested.
