Default Tire questions?

Do I need to change anything if I want to move up from 33's to 35's? Also what is the size differ from 33's and 285's?

Thanks

Do you have a lift? If not you would have to start there!

Maybe trim the fenders (or remove the liners) or go for aftermarket flat ones if you'll be doing full disconnected flexes with the 35s.

I have a 2.5 teraflex bb. I am rocking 35x12.5x17 km2's I don't rub anywhere. I have 4.6 bs wheels. I had to remove the plastic air dam tho. And if you disconnect your sway bar you will but on the bal of your front bumper while flexing. But if you don't disconnect your away bar you won't rub anywhere. You should look into a least some c gussets if doing 35's tho
