Will 37x13.5 tires fit with a leveling kit on a 20x10 rim? OR what about a 35x13.5 with a wheel spacer. I have 35x12.5 on right now with no leveling kit just upgraded bilistein shocks. no rubbing anywhere. I like the wide tire look with a stuffed tire up in the wheel well.



also, does anyone on here run wheel spacers? thanks in advance?

Thanks Eric! I knew I had asked him somewhere about them but I couldn't remember which thread.


Now I need to find out if 37's will rub.....

Yes I run the hell out of mine LOL...they're 1 1/2 inch that I got off ebay. Now I have had zero issue but I rotate and check the lugs allot. The thing I dont like with the size I got is the fact that I had to shorten the factory studs, wasnt something I wanted to do but I've had zero issues in over 15k miles, I've towed a 12k pound bumper pull more than a few times and love the look. I run them with 22x10 hulks with 305/45 street tires...my truck doesnt rub at all with the 2' leveling kit but its about to get droped down to stock front and smaller rear block. I can post pics later if you want to see the width.


With 35s or 37s I recomend staying as close to factory offset as you can though.

The more offset you add the worse it will get. Keep them tucked in and you will be fine.

After putting the 37x13.5 on mine I seriously doubt you can fit it on there with just a leveling kit. I said what I had to do to get them to clear haha. And if it's the same tire I got Toyo says there actually 37.8 I didn't see that till after.

yeah you've got coils bud. I know a 37x12.5 on a stock tire has fit with just a leveling kit. I just really want the wide tires.

Is there anyway to find out the offset of your wheels? I can't seem to remember mine....

i completly understand the difference between the two but its still a 13.5 tire... And like i said my 37 measures to 37.8 I dont know what tire your going for but a tire that says 37 dosnt mean its going to be. And most of those trucks your seeing have stock wheels and 12.5's or close to stock offset

most likeley true. I just didn't know if anybody has tried it before. I have an aftermarket bumper if that makes any difference.


Mayble I'll do 35x13.5 with a wheel spacer and a leveling kit...

Interested in this too. I was thinking a 20x9 with the 4.75" backspace and no offset (like the bmfs) might let a 37 clear on a leveled truck... No one to test it tho haha

I'd really like to test it and see what the verdict is. Can you return tires from where you buy them or do you have to sell them on craigslist or something
