Michelin XZL

[ini88]

I have a 'guy' who i am sourcing some Michelin tires from. I know some people on the board run them and love them. Most seem to be running the 8.25 size with what looks like a 3 inch lift.

My question is would the Michelin XZL 9.00 (36.5inch) fit a 3 inch Rovertym lift with to LR rubber isloators (might give me .5 inches more)? or would I need a 4 inch lift?

My opinion is that you'll find something else to worry about other than a lift, in order to run those things...
:)

Nice tires though,maybe in a more suitable size...

thanks for the advice.

The last truck I imported had those brand new and when I went to source some more, cause I had torn one open, I had a really hard time finding more and were also very expensive.

I had the 7.5 r16. The tire was nice but the thread wore rapidly on pavement and was very narrow and gave the truck the tractor look witch I was not fond of.

For availability and comfort I went with BFG MTs with no regrets.
