I'm sure this has been asked before but I'm having trouble finding it. Whats the tallest tire you can run with a 3.5" sl and a 2" bl?

How big of a tire fits depends on how much has been cut to make room for it.
I have seen 33's fit with no lift and a little trimming, and 35's that took a LOT of lift to keep clear of the new paint job.

Add in how lowered the bumpstops are and there isn't a real solid number.

I have a 3.5" SL and a 2" BL and run 36"s with plenty of room. 37's would fit nicely. But, I also cut my fenders pretty high.

5.5" of lift + flexible suspension + 37's = lots of cutting.

3.5" lift with 2" body 35 to 37 inch tires.But...... you have to have cut fenders and the right wheel backspacing or you may rub at full stuff.

You guys sure know how to throw out the welcome mat, geez.

This pic is with 3.5 suspension, 2 inch body lift, using WH warflares. The inner fenders have been trimmed and sharp edges smoothed out somewhat because every so often they will rub. Tires are 37" Iroks on 15x10 wheels using 1.25" spacers. Hope that helps.
