Top is the ☆before☆ with Falken Wildpeake AT3's; and the bottom is the Atturo Trail Blade.
Before & after are 235/65/17.
Also, the Atturo's ride really good and I have already tested them on a trail and some wet clay roads!

I've been building this for more than a dozen years. I bought it from a field and I know it sat for several years prior. I did a mild rebuild on the Suburban 350 it had and put a bigger Carter AFB on it. I also swapped in a Muncie M20 4 speed with a Hurst shifter and linkage with a little better clutch. Redid the power (front disc) brakes and most of the suspension, with a new 3.42 Yukon LSD and a lift in the rear to clear the tires.
I want to lift my nova a couple inches for aesthetic reasons and because roads in my town are god awful. What’s a budget way I could easily lift my car to go from the 27s I’m running to say 30s? I asked on nova forums but got angry guys telling me not to even consider lifting such a car.
Still a work in progress, I just got the tires mounted and suspension done last weekend. I have some idea of finishing it off like a rear mounted spare, low profile rock sliders etc. I am selling my jeep soon but still want to make it to some of the easier to get too spots.
Currently for sale on Facebook.

Someone save this beast!

Snortin' Nortin was originally a 1971 Chevy Nova, and was raced in the Baja 1000 from the early to mid 1980s, before being left in a barn to rot for many years. It was discovered in 2011, restored, and raced again in the 2011, 2012, and 2013 NORRA Mexican 1000. It now sits in the Peterson Auto Museum in LA, which is where this picture was taken. (This is not my photograph, although I have seen the car in person before at this exact exhibit.)
