You should be able to run 32s or their metric equivalent on the s/c rims without the need for a body lift. some very minor trimming of the plastic at the bottom rear of the wheel well may be needed.

A LT265/70R17 metric tire equals a 31.6 inch diameter, 10.4 inch wide tire so if your question is will that tire fit, based on Ken?s previous response, the answer would be yes.

if you go much wider than 11.5 on an 8 inch rim, you aernt going to get full tread contact with the road at proper inflation.
