6' suspension 35's or 37's ??

I just ordered my 6' suspension lift.. I was told 37's would clear.. so im close to ordering them 37x13.50x20 toyo m/t $1900 when I found a local guy that has a set of 35x12.50x20 same tires for about $650 less.. just looking for some opinions.. if 35's would be to small and not look right?? or will the 37's be too much n' not enough lift.. I'd appreciate any input.. thanks!

I would get the 37's, I can't imagine that they wouldn't fit with a 6' lift, but I like it when the tires fill up more of the wheel well. that's just me

thanks for the input.. they said the 37's would fit.. but they might rub a little..they mentioned having to cut.. I'm thinking I don't know about the whole cutting/fabricating thing.. im just hoping it looks sweet 37x13.50 on some 20 fuel hostage chrome..

My 36s rub at full lock if I run over a bug. Im on 6 inches. Wish Ide have stuck with a 35 but with a 24" wheel, my tire choices are severely limited..

nice truck blue turd... it's been hard bc pics are misleading.. some 6' lifts don't look very high....and others look just right! @ford truggy... I was actually wanting 22's but not enough funds right now.. I joked about 24's and my buddy said the same thing..bigger wheel less tire choices...and WAY MORE money.. I just don't get it though.. the manufacs reccmnd 37x13.50

I have leveling kit only and 37's are fine.

22" wheels are a NIGHTMARE. <40" tires don't have the load rating with 22" wheels. Increased wear.
