Default Tires

my friend is selling me some 315/70/17 wranglers pretty cheap and they are almost brand new. Will these fit my truck? Currently I have 295/70/17 toyos on there.

those are 35/12.50s basically. id say they would with the torsion bars tight and you might have to get somethin else to make some more room all dependin on your offset and all that

I have a 3" body lift in the garage so I would install that just to make sure the tires fit plus the torsion and blocks in the back should be a 4 1/2" lift. Would I have to regear? would I mess anything up in my truck its already pretty slow i have the 3.55 LS gears

not necessarily. 35s is normally the height where people would start to regear. if it was me. id put the tires on and drive it for a while and see how the truck performed and go from there
