You may have to do some fender trimming and get some fender flaires.

37" tires will fit without any trimming of the fenders


you will rub on full turn and on some of the bigger bumps though. a guy on another forum ran 37" Toyo's for 6 months before the rubbing drove him crazy. He fixed it by adding 2" taller shocks to the 6" Pro-Comp lift (8" total up front) and a 2" add-a-leaf out back.


looks pretty nice.


but yeah, you can make a 37" work with 6"...but it'll get annoying real quick. Why not stack a 2" Leveling kit ontop of the 6" up front, and add a 1.5" or 2" AAL out back so you have about 8" all around. Cost you about another $200-250 and the 37" tires will fit without rubbing
