another tire,lift,wheel size question.

[sandmanb]

i'm in the process of buying a 89 grand wag. i have a 4 inch lift,front and rear springs,373 gears posibly a locker for the rear and a tracklock for the front. my question is what size wheel and tire combos can i use? i have a set of 8 inch wheels with 32/11. 50's that i may use but i would rather use a 10" wheel with the 32/11.50's. if i use the 10" wheel would i have to drop down to a 31/10.50 so i would have clearance?

I would go with a 8" wheel with the 11.50's. A 10" rim is to wide for it, you will pop a beed pretty easy offroading.

32x11.50's will fit with a 8" rim, but you will get a tiny bit of rubbing in back along the front edge of the quarter. Taking a hammer and pounding back the inner lip will probably solve that. I kinda wish I went with 32's on my jeep, but ohwell, the 31's work just fine for me.

this setup will be for my street jeep tow vehicle so i'm not real woried about poping the bead off. mostly woried about clearance.
