Any tire position change after lift?

I am thinking about a 3" lift from OME. Im a little concerned that the tires may shift inward screwing with the wheel base and kinda making it look lame. Dont have the cash to spend on new rims to off set that. If it does move in, how much and would spidertrax be worth installing?

Re: Any tire position change after lift?

all you need to do is get an alignment after you lift and it will correct it.

Sorry, I may be slow but I have no idea what you are asking. Are you asking if the lift will narrow the track (width) of the FJ and putting a wheel spacer on is necessary to get it back to "normal"?

thats correct. I wasnt sure if the tires would pull in or not.
