Sweet! Yeah, the wheel width and backspacing is as important to fitment as tire size. THose OEM wheels are 7.5 inches wide. I'd stick with a 35x12.50 or 35x13.50 tire on a 10 inch wide wheel. Or, add a 3 inch body lift also.

is it me or do 35's look just too small for a 6" lift?? i dont know, but 37s look too small with 6" and 3" Body lift..thats just me though. the mfg's reccomend 33's for a 4" lift, and people put 35's on 4" lift all the time. Wandell, you even put 35's on 3" body lift. 37s are only 2" taller than what the reccomend (same as w/ the 4" lift - 33's are reccomended, but people squeeze 2" taller tires on it; e.g. 35s; on it all thje time.)

It's all about the look you want. Also, lift height does not change the shape of the wheelwells. There is a point that you have to have a lot more lift to fit a slightly larger tire because of the shape of the wheelwells.
