Wandell. Or anybody for that matter.

I have my torsion bars cranked with 3" blocks in the rear, along with a 3" body lift for a total of (almost) 6" all around. Do you think it's possible to run a 36"x12.5" on stock rims with little rubbing? I know I shouldn't go taller than a 35 on the stock rims, but I don't have the money for rims and tires, as I am in the process of moving out of my parent's house.

I would just go with 35s, but I plan on doing a 5 or 6 inch suspension lift in the future and I want something that's not going to look completely out of proporsion with 11" of lift. I want to go as big possible with the lift I have now, even if it means trimming a bit.

7". I know I can run up to a 12.5" tire on the stock rims. 36s may be a bit tall, but I can't afford rims at the moment. I'm not concerned about fitting the tire on the rim, rather fitting the tire on the truck.

They will rub the frame at full steering lock, but you could probably fit them. I'd just save my money and do it all at once. Wiht a suspension and body lift you are gonna want an even larger tire.

Alright I guess I'll just go with 35s for now. If I get some cheap MTs they'll probably be worn down by the time I get the susp lift. I won't feel so guilty about buying new tires again if I actually need them lol. Thanks for your help.
