Clearing 37's ?

I'm running a 6" procomp lift with 35's but I'm wanting just a little more tire. Does anyone know if 37's would fit ok with the 6" lift on a 18x9 aftermarket wheel?

i believe that RIZE industries makes a 8" lift to clear the 37's. since you have the 6" lift on it now, possible you could go with a spacer leveling kit, and larger blocks to get those 2 extra inches..... i wouldnt say its advisable, but it might work. im not sure on the lifts for these trucks, but with the superduties when you cross from the 6" zone to the 8" zone, you tend to get more issues (drive lines, brake lines, etc).

Same here. Since there is zero lateral movement with the rear tires, you can pretty much stuff those till the cows come home. What are the specs on your current front rims?
