stock wheels wont be wide enough. Also you will rub on the back of the wheel well actually all the way through the wheel well if you cycle your suspension....

your at your limit, unless you cut the fenders or lift it.

on my 1990 f-250 im running 36x12.50x16.5's with no lift. thats as far as im gonna go with it without lifting. but on your truck id say if youre clearing 35s now then youre doing pretty good. but yeah if you do a 6 inch suspension lift youd clear 38s no prob, and if you throw on an extra 3 inch body lift i know for a fact that you could clear 40s at least.

Any way you could post a pic of your set up now?

Always remember that its usually not the height that gets you its the width. Boggers usually run true to the tread width. Meaning if it's a 37x13 its probably going to be 37 inch tall and 13 inches wide. Most tires run smaller than what they say especially on Tread Width.

by the way you know the Boggers have a VERY short life span right...they are rough on the road, OK in the sand till you stop then they will dig to china and get you stuck while a front wheel drive car drives around you LOL but they are 2nd to NONE in the mud!
