37" tires, about 4" rake. Only in it because the front hasn't been lifted yet.

Not sure how much rake, but I had to raise it up a half inch to get it in my driveway. Volare front end with the frame Z'd 2 inches. The rear is notched with leaves removed & the Explorer 8.8 flipped on top. The Cab is channeled 2 inches. The driveway angles down, but the only pic I had
