First ... I have used "find" button...
here in Italy the only available lift kit is 4" Rancho.
Now...can anyone explain me why I can not use stock rims and tires (not only for looking)...
Why if I have 37x12.5x17 with stock rims cannot use ?
Many thanks

Hey Ernie, this may not be technical enough, but the fact is that the stock tires rub on the new (sorry can't think of the name) spindle assembly that is used. You need less back spacing than stock. Other wise the rim rubs on the new component (still can't think of the name)

I'm sure someone will jump in an give us the right name for the part the tire mounts to.

OK now I don't remember if it is the tire or the rim that rubs. I think its the rim

Hope this jibberish helps.
