Biggest size tire you can run on a 3/2 lift?

Looking for tire recommendations. I have a 3/2 lift and I’m running 265/70/17 and they look pretty small.

I was able to get 285/70r17 with the spacer lift and never had any rubbing

It felt pretty good to cut it up and squeeze them in there. Sit about same height as a lot of local guys do on 33’s (because they all run 3.5-4” lifts).

Mmm I can hear it now....

WTF ARE YOU DOING TO YOUR 30k TRUCK!! -wife

But 37s would be welllll worth it
 
How sturdy are the fenders now. I’ve cut out on jeeps and always hated that they “flopped” around. Did you reinforce them at all?
Fronts are fine. They are trimmed enough to be close to mounts and body lines. The rear needs to be braced. We are building into the rear bumper so keep things simple.

Nice! I was wondering that and if it would be worth it to add a lip back to the cut off portion to add strength.

I think a lip you can fold in and bolt a bracket to would be best option to keep a factory type bracket in there. May even be able to modify factory bracket to work
 
3 inch lift on 35s trim like a man ?? Well worth it in the end
