It'll probably never happen, but it would be cool to slap on a set of those wrangler tires that Goodyear makes for the Humvee. They can be had on eBay CHEAP. I'm talking about a stock 2003 crew cab 4x4.
Big fun on weekends following a rain. :thumbs :p

For 37"s I'd go with an 8" Edge kit for sure :sweet

I do not mean to disagree with Bill but,............ :sorry

You can clear 37" tires with just a 6" lift with only minor rubbing issues. :sweet

See pics.

(just kiddin ya Bill)

On edit: Edge kits are the best!!!

That's cool Tom :D My personal preference is to avoid any fender,bumper,spring rubbing as in the past I've had to utilize cutoff wheels for resolve clearance issues :rolleyes:

I have a 6.5" Pro Comp lift and have no rubbing at all...

I run the Goodyear 37" MTR's... In fact I have enough room that I am thinking about going up to their 40" wheels.

I'd recommend at least a 6, an 8 would be better if you're going to wheel. You'll have more travel but if you're not a heavy wheeler, you could scrape by with an Edge 6 inch...

Or you could get crazy like me and put on the Edge 10.5 inch with crossover, downright high!!!

You run 39's or 40's don't you Swany?

What kind of wear do you get?

I've gotten 44k out of this last set of Swamper Radials (38's) and am looking at the IROK 39.5's, I heard they were really soft tho and i put some miles on my rig. I'm almost right at the lift law out here in Ca and if I push up to 40's they'll nail me for sure, I can get away with 39.5's, just barely!
