My K5's tires had an allergic reaction

My K20 is decommissioned for a while and I will have to yank it's front tires anyway, so I thought, why not throw them on the K5 for a while.

I think these pics show why 4" of lift is generally considered to be inadequate for 35"s. The fender flares that I haven't yanked yet make the clearance look worse of course but obviously would have contact if the K5 was used off-road with these tires and no trimming. The front lift is 4" springs while the rear lift is a 2" block along with custom spring perches on the 14 bolt ff.

Here are a couple comparison pics with the smaller tires that measure 31".

I doubt the green is a factory color. The K5 was originally the light blue and someone slapped on this green at some point. Judging by how the PO's did things, I doubt they went to the trouble of painting it a factory color.

Sweeet. The tires look nice on the rig. Save those skinny tires for your bicycle.
