That should only get you a 1" lift, 27-29=2, 1 on the bottom and one on
the top, the tire and wheel calculator shows a 1.18" difference of
height and a sidewall difference of .59" (your lift) with a 4.09% low
reading on the speedo. I have switched from P235 to LT31s on my truck.
The speedo was not off enough to notice and I have not been pulled over,
mine is suppose to be 5.78% low. The ABS also operates the same. Truck
runs good on them and does look better with the bigger tires.
