Will 34" tires fit a stock 98?

I'm considering buying a sweet 1998, but it has 4.10's which NEED big wheels imo. It has 305/75/16 mickey thompson tires on MT -45 rims currently with a 4in/3in leveling kit. 2000 rpm @ 65mph.

Its two inch's to tall (80")to get under my garage door and I'm wondering if I were to remove the 4in/3in leveling kit.. Would the tires rub?

Thanks

Probably rub a little

You need a shop with tall door

Id run 315/75/16 with 4:10s

Crap! Figures..

Something as simple as axle ratio, and Im back searching for eternity.

Rims with much more backspacing will hug the body more and extend the life of your wheel bearings.

I run the setup in my signature and clear 7' parking garages.
IIRC, my height is 6' 8"

That's a "holy grail" truck. '98 12v, quad cab

Id like to have that truck if it isnt salt road rusted

With that price , These 2nd gens seemed to be holding good value

I think my truck is worth what I paid for it 14 years ago
