Uncut Tire Size

I know information may be out there already, But I paid my 12 dollars and I need expert assistance before I buy 30x9.5x15 BFG tires for $300. I have uncut rear fenders, no lift in rear. My front fenders previously cut by OP.
Rims are 15x7x3.75. Lift question? Can 2 inch block be put under rear springs w/longer U-bolts and 2inch taller front coil springs added to have a 2 inch lift all around. That's probably the cheapest way to get lift.

Thanks
Ron

Hi, I think the tires will fit but why don't you measure your old ones and compare that to 30" tall, and 9 1/2" wide. My guess is there won't be much difference.
Yes you can use blocks and taller front springs to get a modest lift.
The shocks, drive shafts, and alignment should be fine.
Good luck

Sorry forgot to mention is a 1977, Tires that were on it or 29x9.5, but only difference is the rear quarter were previously round/cut with flares.
I appreciate all of the responses, I will be getting tires Thursday evening. Seems like really good deal.
Thanks for all the quick responses

I just put 30x9.5 BFGs on my uncut Bronco with 15 x 7 x 3.75 rims. I put 1 inch lift block in rear for a little extra clearance. I had to put a 1.5 inch lift block on the drivers side to level it out. Great deal on the tires.
