Tall n Skinny

[LIVEAnimals]

Nothing showed under my search here, so.... I have everything to do a 4" lift on my Sub. I'm kinda liking the tall skinny look, these trucks have 4" lifts with 255/85s on them. I just wish there were more options taller then a 255/85 (33x10). If anyone has some insight and maybe some pics that would be great. Thanks

If you can find some 9.0x16", they are about 36" tall. I have 11.0x16" and they are a full 38" tall.

If you go with swampers, they make a 34x9.5s, 34x10.5s, 35x10.5s. But those don't last very long on a fullsize truck.

I had 255s on my diesel. That's a great size.

kind of gotta go with a swamper if you want tall and skinny.

34x9.50 and 34x10.5 one in a normal bias ply swamper ( not even sure if you can still get it) and the other in the LTB range.

I think they make a 35x10.5 swamper ssr, radial tire much better for daily driving.

you could always go 315/75/16 its 35" tall round about and about 11" wide put it on a narrower wheel to skinny the look up a bit

Dang beat to the punch.

I haven't seen a 9r16 for a while can you even get em new anymore? Also not sure if you can get any of the swamper in those sizes

They might still make the regular tsl in qr78. That's about a 36x10". Haven't looked recently to see if they are still making those.

Not sure on the 9.0x16". There might be some odd ball companys still making that size. There is a guy here in Portland that sells new tires in odd sizes with names on the sidewall I haven't heard of.

Another good place to look would be the expedition sites.

Continental makes some tall and skinny tires, I have seen land rover guys and mog guys use em. Might be spendy but they are good tires from what I have heard

I saw a 3/4 ton 4x4 truck the other day that someone put 19.5" rims on from a motorhome,and it had tall skinny tires on them about 33" tall,but I dont know what sizes 19.5's came in...looked pretty cool though!...

19.5s are a good option. I think they make them up to about 36". The only drawback would be $

No advice, but I like the tall and skinny look too. Hope you'll put up some pictures when you get it figured out.

Just looked at Intercos site, I can get 35 1050 16s in the SSR platform

I have 9.00x16, I checked last year and you could still get them at that time. They are Power King tires and they actually ride very nice.

 

[1BEATK5]

Are they radials?

 

[USSkoval]

No, that's what impresses me about them, they ride so well for being a bias ply.
