Sucha newbie that I posted this in the wrong generation section. :emotions122: Own a 2011 1500 longhorn and I'm planning on doing a 6" bds lift(never done one), tire recommendation on the bds website is 37x13.50r20, seen a lot of people on here do 35's, but for off road purposes from what I see. I'm no longer live in an area where I can go off roading. So is there rubbing with this size tire? Or something I can get to prevent rubbing? Body lift? Does this set up involve cutting fenders? need wheel spacers? Here's the rims I'm gonna be using if that makes a difference. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whee...lse&filterNew=All&filterWeight=All&sort=Brand
if link doesn't work, it's **** cepek dc2's.

they tires will fit as long as the rim is a 0 or negative offset but if your on the road only i would go with some 37in at tires instead of mt so your not loosing to much mpg and it will ride smother

Running 37s with the 6" lift will work as long as you don't get too extreme with how far your wheels stick out. A 9" wide wheel with 5 inches of backspace (0 offset) will work, maybe even 4.5" (-12 offset) depending on how wide a 37 you pick.

6 of lift doesn't seem like that would be enough for 37's but then again I could be wrong. I'm think more like 6 plus 3 for nine of lift for them to work right.

So im thinking of doing the **** cepek dc2's (20x9, -13mm offset, 4.49" backspacing) with a set ofpro comp xtreme radial a/t(37x13.50r20) with the 6" bds lift. Any feedback on this set up? Everyone's input is much appreciated since the only truck I've everlifted was a Honda ridgeline :Stupid Me: thanks.
