Want to install the OLV +3" rear springs and lift the front to level. Will I be able to fit 30" tires on the van?
Thanks

Re: How big a tire with a +3" lift
Usually people match the tire to the lift.
2" = 235/75R15 (29")
3" = 30x9.5R15
4" = 31x10.5R15
2" = 235/75R15 (29")
3" = 30x9.5R15
4" = 31x10.5R15

As dunedog said...yes, but some minor trimming and this assumes of course that you use the stock rims or equivalent.
