Not always true, but 31 inch tires should be ok. Thirty five seems to be the magic number when things start wear out.

I'm aware that suit cost money but I got connections to free 31s so all I'd be out is getting it running right and the lift. And it's not a daily driver just a bottoms cruiser got 3 other vehicles so not worried about **** wearing out any faster and I don't think that a 31 would cause too much harm to things.
