    You should probably do the 3" lift first so you can verify new tire clearance. You might also have to add wheel spacers to get tires to clear upper ball joints. 3" lift kits or spacer lifts vary depending on brand and can give you more or less than 3".

    @Groundfault is correct….nobody buys big shoes to grow into. Post up your lift installation and we will help select a wheel/tire combo
