Tire fitment questions.

[DA BIG ONE]

I run 285/75/16's under all kinds of conditions w/o lift but trim some.

Frt bumper can be trimmed about 1" at edge of fenderwell, or you can shim it forward w/washers, or short lengths of pipe maybe still use same bolts.

Rear of fenderwell from about mid well height down to rocker needs to be trimmed, or rolled on a taper from zero at mid height rear fender well to about 2" at bottom of rear fender well.

You may have to adjust the above more or less but it works, been running em for some time now.

Back of truck needs nothing to run 285's

Smallest rim for 285's would be 7" which is .50" narrower than recommended width, I use ALCOA 16"x7" all around their capaticy is 3750 lb load rating ea.

I ran 285/75's on my 96 just needed to trim the fender flare at the inside corners. I just used a pocket knife didn't need much.

just picked up a 93 ext. cab long box HD and i want to lift it just a bit. they sit a little low compared to the rest of the big diesels around here in central alberta and i have been looking at the 2"-2.5" lifts with new torsion keys and either blocks or springs for the rear they are really cheap. So will it work seeing that it is a small amount of lift? I am running 2005 aluminum chev take off's with 275/85 goodyear MTR's. Any thoughts?
