37's on a 4"

2000wa250 · Nov 23, 2012

Anyone have any info on what is needed to run 37's on a 4" lift?

I'm debating between 18-20" rims and 35's and 37's...whatcha got

Depends on what year truck.
I ran 37s on 22x9.5s with a 4.5 inch lift on my 08 before I moved to 6inches.

Its on a 2000. Isn't tank also running cut outs?

Yeah I think he is.

On my 02 35s are real close, but that is on stock wheels and a 2 inch leveling kit.
I'd bet you'd need more then 4inches of lift to get 37s.

CSIPSD I believe runs 37's with a 4.5" lift. Maybe PM him

I run 37/13.5s on 22x11 rims with a 3.5" hanger kit and an inch homemade leveling kit, but I like the "stuffed" look

Icon says their 4.5" kit will work with 37's with some minor trimming. That's what I'm planning to go with.

it's all great until you use your truck as a truck and may be turning the front tires as you hit a bump

or do as tank did and get cut outs

I use my truck as a truck and they do rub At full lock but the offset of the rims is what does me in

I had it on 4.5"'s for a while and couldnt stand the rub anymore so I went up.

I've been running 37's and a 4" lift for well over 200k... The key is stock offset on the wheels. This keeps the wheels and tires tucked in. The further out your wheels are, the more it will rub on the fenders and bumper.

I've been running 8" wide wheels with 37x13.5x17 Toyo MT's.

4" lift, however the last pair of Revtek springs sagged out so much we went with a 6" spring this last time. However the pictures I will post are all with the 4" springs (I'll throw the last one up with the 6" springs for reference.

Yawn... My truck, I can say for certainty, works harder then 90% of the trucks on this forum... No issues.

Zmann · Nov 26, 2012

I guess if they only rub and you take any sharp areas and smooth them out
it's ok

I have seen more than one Super duty slice front tires up
Heck I run 8 inches and a 37 that runs small and I can still rub the inner well

CSIPSD · Nov 26, 2012

You could run 12" and the wrong offset on the wheels and rub with 37's...

I only have rub on the springs at full lock. That doesnt change be it stuffed or aired out.

As CSIPSD stated, its all about the wheels. I used to have 20x14 wheels (-76mm offset) with 33" tires, and if I wanted to clear them with no rubbing I would have needed 6" of lift. People who don't understand offset used to think I was crazy for thinking I needed a 6" lift to clear 33's.
