I doubt it will clear with the lift and bigger tires. 3" is most likely your safe max lift IMO

Easy math gives the answer of no. But I say screw it and park outside.

LOL this brings back memories ... I have an 86 Blazer that was lifted about 3 inches. Parking underground in downtown Boston ... I cleared the big sign out front and proceeded to rip off a sprinkler head just inside.

Yeah, this is what I'm afraid of. My girlfriends gonna be pissed when I come to see her in Tampa and have to park like a mile away because I won't fit in that ******* low ass parking garage, but big ******* deal, I'll stay out in the streets like a true bro.

So there was this one time I was going into a parking garage and fit through on the way in. But didn't quite fit on the way out. Scrapped up the paint on the roof, pulled the cross members of the rack loose and broke off the third tail light.
The chick that was riding with me thought it was a little funny. So I did too.

Install a body lift on the parking cover.

I can fit my truck in the garage, and in parking garages downtown. But I will say, it's very close. Very.
