with stock rims you can get by running a 37.. when you add an offset rim it will make them wider, hence harder to clear.. i ran 37 13.50 20 on stock rims with a 2.75" leveling kit and blocks in the back, it was too tight for me, shifted the axle too far, scrubbed and looked too narrow. 6 inches is minimum for a 37, imo, especially with any type aftermarket rim. if you want it to look good and still retain your gas milege,your performance, and part of your wallet, go with a 2 in leveling kit and blocks with 20"s and 35s

 

i run a 4.5" icon with 37'x12.50's on a stock rim and have very slight rubbing on the radius arm only... 6" is not needed..

 

you MAY clear a 37 with a leveling kit but you WILL scrub when it turns. 35's are a perfect fit.

why are you stuck on the Kumho's? they arent a great tire and you can get a LOT of 35's that look nicer and ride better

 

:whs:

 

What im going to do is go with a 20x10.5 aftermarket rim and some 35s then. I see you can just get a 2.5 spacer for 135.00. Would this be the way to go? What is everyones suggestions on a m/t 35 to go with?

 

i love my nitto mud grapplers on my 3rd set on this truck. strongest tire ive ever ran, only downsides are they suck on ice. some people hate the noise but i dont mind it. i get 30k to 35k out of mine

 

I think you need longer shocks too

 

Here is my old truck, 2 inch spacers in front and factory f350 blocks in the rear. 35/12.50/20 toyos on 20x10 wheels.It was a nice fit.

 

Looks very nice. I've been debating a 2.5 vs 4" lift and I think yours perfect.

 

I should be able to tell you if they fit pretty shortly. I just ordered 37x12.50 on a 20x10 4.5 bs W/ -24 offset. All I have is the leveling kit. Wheels and tires are supposed to be delivered on Friday but I am going to be out of town all weekend till next Tuesday so I should get them on Wednesday. I have researched this quite well and I am pretty confident that it will work, the only thing that I am not sure about is the offset.......... Nothing like trial and error.

 

i dont think it will work with that offset either, mine is leveled with 35's and my 20's have a -44 offset and i rub. but you may get lucky

 

That offset probably wont work. I just did a friends 08 with that offset and 35s and did plenty of trimming to make it work.

 

I have been told that with the 4.5 backspacing that the -24 off set should work. We will see......

 

where is the best place to get spacers to level the truck? should i got with a 2 or 2.5 inch spacer on an f350? The tires ive decided on are cooper discoverer stt 35x12.5x20 with 20x10.5 Does that sound like a good setup?

 

i dont think it will work with that offset either, mine is leveled with 35's and my 20's have a -44 offset and i rub. but you may get lucky

What was the BS?

 

i cant remember but i think its 4.5 they are jesse james widow wheels

2.5 leveling kit

thats the same one i'm using. same as the BMF without the name on it. and at only $26 you have some extra cash.

i didnt need shock extensions either

 

this is mine with 37x12.50 18 in rim. not sure on offset, quite a bit tho. it would rub on the fender lining only when you had it cranked and on a slight incline. hah, so go with 35's

 

leveling kit #2

they just came out with this kit. VERY complete. i actually emailed for the track bar spacers for my lift!

 

Got them on last night and they do rub the inner fender....... Barley. But they look awesome so I am not too bummed. I am going to start hacking away at the inner fender this weekend.

 

Wait until you compress the suspension before you put the sawzall away. LOL

 

Pics

 

also curious to see the pics as thats what im looking to. put 37s and novakanes on my leveled truck.

 

Let me see if I can figure out how to upload these pictures..........
