i had 32 maxis bighorns on my zook but the important thing is gearing as shep said i had 6.5.1 gears, as for suspension i had 2 inch bodylift and 2inch leafs extented shackels but i also had ruf so there was a fair bit of hammering

i fitted 32" mongrals on 15x8 rims with just a 50mm body lift and a 1ltr
transfer. couldn't use 5th gear and the tyres rubbed a fair bit but it was drivable.

i had 2inch bl, ext shackles and 31s on 7"rims, they were fine, but 32s on 8" rims rubbed everywhere! be carefull of your offset, dont go to big like i did.
gearing should be your numer one mod after fitting

leave it at the same height, but you have to put in bigger diffs, coils, extend the wheelbase and chop the guards out a fair bit.
