wanna put 20x12 on 33s under 1990 k1500

hey guys im new to the truck scene cause I was into civics a lil while ago but speedbumps in those things hahaha so my question is what kind of lift should I go with to fit 20x12 on 33s under my 1990 reg cab short bed k1500? im just collecting data and im on a low budget for the lift cause the rims and and tires a expensive! haha so any help would be greatly appreciated

With that width and I'm sure a wide stance a 6" lift would be best. But you could put a 1.5-2" block in the back crank the torsion bars to level and add a 3" body lift.

3 inch body lift will give you plenty of room for only $179

thanks guys and do you think that will give decent clearance in the front? cause im not trying to buture my front bumper

I'm running 35s on it

yea ive heard of people stuffing 35s in there but how wide are your tires and whats the offset of the rim?

What is the offset of the rims you want. I seriously doubt your going to clear any 12 wide rims on just a body lift. I had 3" of crank and a 3" body lift and had 35s on 10" wide rims with 3.5" backspacing and they rubbed with normal driving and a trimmed valance.

I want to fit 20x12 -44 on 33x12.5 and I don't know much about backspacing...

Weren't yours 35" boggers?? they are much taller than any other 35" tire i have ever seen.

They're 12.5s and -38

Backspacing is the opposite of offset
