Can you comfortably put 32" tires on a 3" lift?
I have a 1996 Jeep Cherokee Sport. I'm planning on putting a lift on it in a couple of months. I want to get a black diamond 3" lift and it says that it can fit 31" tires but I was wondering if anyone knows if you can fit 32" tires without rubbing.

With the right amount of trimming you can run 40" stock. At 3" with larger than 30" tire you will also rub on the Control arms. ostly comes down to how much you want to trim, flex, turn...

it all depends on the back spacing of your wheels and how much you are wiling to trim. but just do the lift then get your tires and trim where necessary and get the correct bump stops and you will be OK
