Getting 37's

I just found a pretty good deal on a set of used 37" BFG M/T's. So Im gonna go ahead and get them. My leveling kit is going to be here Monday I hope. I've seen a few posts from people saying themselves or someone else has 37's with only 2". Anyone have any pics of this setup? Thanks in advance!

They will be real close to fitting. Trim the front plastic valance under the bumper at 45 degrees forward from the top.

I am running BFG 315's. Can't help you on the clearance issue but will say that I am pleased with the BFG M/T. It is a great tire and they last forever, just keep them rotated so that they do not cup and get noisey on you.

That's what I was going to say. My last set lasted a whopping 20K.

Wow...85k on my last set. 1/4" of tread left.

Maybe you should pay more attetnion to alignment, balance, air pressure and a 5-6" rotation schedule.

Or quit letting the misses make rally car u-turns. LOL.

I have never had mileage issues out of BFG tires.
