I was looking at different web sites for lift kits. One site stated that a 4" Rancho lift kit will not work with stock rims???
I have 37" MTR's on stock rims...why would they not work with a 4" lift kit???...back spacing???

That is exactly what I was told Tuesday. A friend of mine just had one installed and had to change his rims.

I might go with the Rancho 4" lift. Has anyone had problems using stock rims?

I have the Rancho lift. The best thing we (Big "O" tire store manager and I) could figure is that the Rancho kit places the wheel out a little futher than the stock parts which would put undo stress on bearings and such. It's the offset thing.

I think someone mentioned that the Tie Rod connects to the top instead of the bottom of the knuckle making it impossible to use the stock rims with the Rancho.
