Well, that depends on the size of your stock wheels,,,which will vary by model.

On a DII, you can run 265/75/16, which is about a 31" in BFG,,,, or a 285/75/16 which is about a 33", perhaps a hair under. Just make sure you have the right lift & clearance or you'll get rubbing & have stuffing problems. Either way you'll have some rubbing on radius arms at full turn. To properly run 285's off-road you'll need at least 3" of lift on a DII.

DIs are a bit different, perhaps someone can comment but the 265's don't seem to be a very good fit. I can't remember the right metric size, someone here will step in.

If you have 15" wheels you can simply find a 32" tire in a width appropriate to your wheel.

well i am planning on a 2" lift, but all the OME stuff says it is only a 1.5" lift. any suggestions here. i want at least 2 and 3 would be fine as long as it only requires springs and shocks!

Sorry, I failed to see your footer,,where you indicated a DII.
I'm not as familiar w/ OME as some on this board, but I know they make an HD spring with 2" of lift. Perhaps another member can adv. the model #. You can run 265's on a DII w/ a 2" OME lift, no problem. And no need for any other modifications (stock brake lines, ABS lines, etc)

Go with the OME 3" lift, which you can read about on the expeditionexchange.com OME section.. costs about $700 with shipping I think.. no additional mods needed.. the 265/75/16s fit fine with this..

That's what I'm running, with trXus' 265/75/16 (about 31.9x10.6)
