What size tire with Carli
Will a 37" tire fit with Carli's 3 inch springs. Thinking of mixing some suspension components together from various people. Anyone know any major differences between Carli coil springs and Lorenz coil springs. Both sound pretty good.

You can fit 37's with a 3" lift but you have to have a wheel with the right backspacing. I know on 35's, that 5.5"+ is great, but I'm not sure on 37's. You could call Sage and he would let you know. As for the springs, Carli's springs are a little softer than Lorenz's.

I fit 37's on my truck with 2-1/2" of lift - no rubbing and no fender trimming. Wheels are 17x9 with 5.71" b.s. and +18mm offset, tires are 37x12.50-17 and measure 36.5".
Toyos might be a bit tough to fit 'cause they're a true 37, if not a little more.
Like 06CTDforAU said, Carli's springs are softer than Lorenz's. I'd buy Carli.

Carli Coils over Lorenz! 37" tires on H2 wheels will rub rear wheel well under good articulation/flexing. Stocker wheels you will not need bed fiberglass fenders only minor rubbing on the upper control arms in the front.
Regardless up front. You will need 1/2" longer control arms to move your axle back to center from the lift up front. To clear the 37" tires.
Toyo tires are a wide tire also. You might get by w/ a more narrow tire on H2wheels w/ 37"...... Like Pauly said. I am hearing good things about the Yokohama Tires as an alternative to Toyo's.
