I put 235-85-16 GoodYear Duratracs on my stock wheels with my 4" lift.
The lift came with extended bump stops front and rear.
I also have slightly longer lower control arms front and rear. About 1" longer than stock.
The only trimming I did was a very small amount off the front bumper as the tire looked like it might hit it when turning.
I have a small amount of rubbing on the lower control arm at full lock.
The rear tire hit the exhaust pipe but I just bent that out of the way.
I have no other rubbing but have not disconnected yet.
