Hi guys

Just looking for some advise based on experiences.

I've decided to attempt to run 31s on my sierra with 2" sus + 2" bod lift.

Just wondering what tyre width (inches please) would still allow it to maintain a decent turning circle I haven't made my changes to the guards other then wider flares.

Cheers

Tyre width isn't really the issue.
Rim width is.
I'd suggest 15x7 -13 or -24 if you can find them.

Ok cheers,

And with the correct offset would be a good tyre width?

On a 7 inch rim you don't want to go any wider than a 10.5 inch tyre.
Ideally (on a sierra) you want the skinniest tyre you can get in the height you want... eg:30x9.5

15x7-38 clears a 31x10.5" tyre by a mile... you will DEFINITELY want some 5.14 or 6.5 tcase gears though. If you're sticking with the 1.3L engine, go with 6.5's.

Except you'll need to remove the bumper outriggers and part of the the front bar, then you'll need at least 3 inch wide flares outside the original wt flares.
