Hi I am new to the forumn and just purchased a 2002 ST 4x4. If I do the Torsion bar twist lift and the shackles for the rear. What kind of tire size should I be able to fit without any rub with the stock rims?

Thanks
 






Without "any" rub at all, 265/70/16's. You can go as tall as a 265/75/16 but you'll get rub on the sway bar and the inner fenders on the rear of the tire when turned and going over bumps. If you go anything bigger then stock ziptie the plastic inner fenders (front and rear) in more to make more room for the tires to compensate for some rub.
 






^ thats the best answer right there,I have to use 5mm spacers for rub on the sway bar and ziptie the plastics to fit my 265/75/16
