Pictures of stock height with 32" tires?
Is anyone running stock height suspension with 32" tires OR has a 1" block lift at the rear only with 32" tires. Any pictures that you could post?
I'm wondering : a) What the stance looks like - I think the 1" lift would eliminate the rear squat that the blazer has and the slightly larger tires woudl make it look a wee bit more solid. b) Whether I'd need to trim the fenders at all (don't want to do that). |

I ran 33's on stock suspension on my suburban. when it had 8" rallys it cleared once I put the 12" rims I had to clearance the rear of the front fender.

Pretty certain I have 8 inch x 15 so that should be good . Some photos wouldn't go amiss though folks :)

I did 32 x 11.5 BFG's and they were just fine at stock height. Adding a 1" block in the rear also worked perfect for me to take the sagging look out.
You should be just fine. |

I ran 32x11.50-15 Cooper STT's on stock 8x15 ralley's with my 1980 Suburban for nearly three years on the high-mileage stock suspension with no trouble at all (see picture). The fronts did occasionally rub the running boards in certain situations, but it was pretty mild.

Ski - me - any pics??
Silver Miner - how gnarly were the "certain situations"? this is going to be a mall crawler with occasional beach / rocky trail and mud 4x4 use. |

Here is a photo of my old 78 Jimmy running 255-85-16's (approx. 33") on stock suspension, complete with droopy butt.

Thanks all for the info, but keep pictures coming if anyone has them. Sounds like I should be able to fit large tires with minimal issue to existing wheels when the current ones get a bit more worn down. I'll add 1 inch lift blocks at the same time and we'll see how it turns out.

It was 15 years ago if I can recall.....so hard to find pics with 32's on it.
Here is my old suburban that I put 1" blocks on the rears....couldn't tell you the tire size but I think they were 16" rims?!? |

I did a bit more looking....this guy claims to have 32" tires.
Also, you and I discussed this awhile back in another thread. Here are a few more pics that might help you. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=605354 |

You have a good memory - I'd totally forgotten that thread.
That last one looks about perfect in terms of stance. |

32's look great on a stock suspension but they're hard to find. At least they used to be.

My 1989 Suburban v1500 had 235/75/15 tires when I got it -stock size. There was so much space inside the wheel well you could stick your head in above the tire and rotate without hitting anything. I moved up to 31" tires for a free 1 +" lift, have had no problems at all.
