All good. I do appreciate the effort you put into your original post btw. Thought i was going looney with all the numbers and such I have been trying to cram in my memory.

Looking back up at the OP; I see it now. Thanks so much for clarifying and so quickly!

No problem! I tried to take all the numbers slowly and step by step, is it all thrown in together to fast? I know it took me a while before I could just look at the size and give you a close guesstimate of what the size was, but you get there at some point.

Sorry, I meant in general. Not your post specifically.

I am a slow burner on decisions so I have been trying to gather info and make the best choices for lift/wheel/tire setup. I have been lurking here for a long time and still don't know the tire size I want.

I can't decide what height to put my Bilstiens at...They have been sitting in the garage. I have picked out wheels though!

I don't want to derail your thread, but since you offered .

My 5100's will be set at either .75, or 1.5. I do not want to max them out. The wheels I want to buy are 18x8 with a +33 offset, 5.88 back spacing.

Any idea what tire size I can get without rubbing or trimming for each height? I am leaning towards the Toyo At2.

2wd or 4wd? I would say you could possibly fit a 33x12.50R18

Idk if you live nearby a discount tire but we test fit tires all the time and if the one near you does fairly good business I guarantee they will have any tire size you wanna try on.
