Bought 32"s Today

Today I got a great deal on 32/11.5/15 Mud Terrains on Eagle Alloys. They were used for 1 month on a show truck and stored for the year. I got em for $375, couldnt turn it down.

I got an 87 4Runner with a 22RE, How are these goign to feel without regearing?

How much lift will I need and what is the best/cheapest way to achive this (Going to college soon, need to save money)?

The two options I was looking at now was ball joint spacers frt and shackels in rear, or just a 2" or 3" body lift.

If bodywhats better, a 2" or 3".

I'm ordering tonight so lemme know asap, Thanks a lot,
Alex

I've got 32's with no lift. They rub a little but not too bad. 1 or 2 inches of lift is all you'd need to prevent rubbing. i'm thinking about getting the balljoint spacers and extended shackles.

Ok so I guess I'll be okay for now.

What about the power issue?

And also where can I find some centercaps, 2 that would go good iwth Aisin hubs (blk/red) and Eagle 589's

Thanks a lot,
Alex

You should be able to fit them without a lift without any problems. I have 32" Swampers and had no lift for about 2 years. I now have ball joint spacers and lift shackles (not so much for tire fitment, but for ground clearance).

As for power, it depends on the condition of your engine. With 4.10 ring & pinions mine is a snail, but I don't need it to go fast.

Having 32's and 4.10 gears isn't too bad. 4.88's would be better but not nessasary.
cranking your torsion bars up makes your rig ride like crap. I did it to mine then put it back down the next weekend.
