Will 38" tires fit with a 6" lift?

Hi,

All i'm finding is trucks with 6" lift and 37" tires. What about 38" tires? will they fit and turn in the front without rubbing on F-250's and F-350's with 6" lifts?

35"? Now i'm confused. Everybody have 37" with no problems. And you have issues with 35"? Is it because they are wider maybe? Mine would be for show, won't ever see mud, not sure if it makes a difference.

yes, tepot.i think its too wide for the lift....but i couldn't imagine 38 s on mine...but i gotta say it only hits the back end of the front fender when turning and hitting a dip or a drive way too fast at the same time

6" procomp with 37 BFG's they cut out some of the fender liners and it only rubbed on hard left turns on the arm... but not a ton of difference especially if once the tires wear a bit...

Yes, friend of mine runs 38" Nitto Trail Grapplers, he did have to trim the air dam and extended the front bumper out a little.
