I'm running a 4.5...its fine. It's tight...but its fine. Really, a 4.25 would be perfect. LOL

I've had good luck with a 8" rim with a 4" BS. It's important to have good upper and lower control arms and bushings. This will minimize flex, and rubbing of tires on the frame rails and fender lip. Air bags are good too. You shouldnt have to put enough air in them to raise the car, just enough to keep it from bottoming out.
