Tuff country has one of the softest spring rates around. Go the www.coloradok5.com and look around they have a spring rate comparision chart. I ran 4" on an 85 w/ 35s. Stay with a 35-12.5 tire and your trimming will be minimal if at all depending on driving. If you want wider tires 14.5s or wider than you'll have some sheetmetal issues. Also keep in mind not all 35s are 35" some are smaller and some are larger.
