i have a lil over 2.5 inches of lift from rearched springs (i hate them) and this weekend i am puting on a 2 inch body lift.... i am really wanting to get the 34x10.5x15 swamper LTB's i have heard that they run a lil small would it be a good idea to run these tires... will they fit and still have room to flex

You can fit the tires under there but depending on the lift kit you have or will have in the future it may or may not be enough to flex without rubbing... I would work on the lift kit first but hey thats me... The ltbs are good on the trail but I have heard bad reports about them on the road.... Wear patterns, and noise and such....

im putting on the 2 inch body lift tonight and im just gonna see how it looks with the 31's im either gonna run the 31x11.5 ltbs $90 or the 34x10.5 ltbs $110.......the noise i dont care about (very loud stereo) the tire wear i am a little worried about..... im only going to be running these tires in the winter (mainly for deer season) and i will swap them out for a few jeep rides.....what kind of wear/mileage am i going to expect if i run them only in the winter???

aight i put the 2 inch lift on last night and i have lots of room in the fenders with my 31's.....i am really wanting to get the LTB's for some strange reason i dont know y...... i have narrowed it down to either the 33x13.5 or 34x10.5.....what do yall think...i drive it every day and have the damn ole dana 35 and 3.07's...i will put the swampers on different rims so that i can run my 31 inch procomps when it gets hot outside and when i want to go muddin i can just change meats

I dont know, I have about 2" of lift (combined 1 and 1/2 spring and 5/8 shackle) and have comfortable clearence with BFG (small and worn down) 30s. Even with 2" of body I dont think I would want to run more than 32s.

Now if you want to do TJ flares etc etc....................

And not to put a damper on your parade but those rearched springs are going to fade quickly, probably at least an inch in the next 10k.

i have add a leafs all the way around...... i have about 20,000 miles on them and they havent droped any.....and with my 31's now i have room to fit much larger tires because i have trimmed 1.5 inches off all my flares... so 33's or 34's are in the picture.........
