I have not had any issues with rubing and 32's on the stock pomegranate wheels. I think though the 4dr runs a slightly wider axle than the 4cyl 2dr. I have a SR axle on m 2dr and no problem, but I could be wrong about the width. My 4dr with a 2in body lift has no issues either rubbing with 33" 12.5" tires.

If anyone has any other pic's of 32's on stock wheels it'd be much appreaciated.  Short List Tires Wheels (maybe) Gen2 Upper Control arms Gen2 rear coils Gen2 brakes Is there a differance in LS vs SR coils for the rear?

yeah brakes is the bigger issue IMO.
I changed to slotted rotors front & softer pads. Works very well. I also had new brake hoses made all round.
I also regeared to 4.90s (I have 99 model)

I'm not sure I agree with everyone regarding the brakes needing to be upgraded. On my gen 1 LWB v6 with 33's it stopped fine however, I wasn't driving it like it were a lightweight sedan. I drove it ensuring I had sufficient stopping distance between myself and others around me. With the stock setup, I could lock up all 4 without a problem which tells me there's sufficient braking power. In my experience, with the brake system in good condition and proper driving/braking technique which includes driving with a proper buffer between yourself and others around you, it did fine stopping.

That's all fine and dandy til your on a 57 degree slope. I love my big brakes and swear by them as opposed to swearing at my adjusted Gen 1 brakes. Personal observation based on having run both.

V6 brakes, at a minimum, if you want to stop on a 57 degree slope. With the 4-cyl brakes, my water tank trailer (with 200 gallons of water) outmatched my Raider once, causing me to swear rolling through a 4-way stop intersection. Wasn't my turn, everyone stayed put with my horns blaring and lights on hi beams. Not even much compression braking under that load!
