I have the 4.5" with 20x9's with 35's and I could have got a 22x10" wide with a 35" but 12" is pretty wide on the 7" lift alone with 37's. I would assume some trimming would be needed. I have actually been considering going the rest of the way to the 7" and keeping my wheels but adding 37x12.5's. My truck just feels small after having it lifted for a month now.

With a body lift you shouldn't have a issue but it's asking a lot of just a 7" lift alone with that rim width.

I really like those 962's also. I wanted them in black but my brother already has them on his truck, laaame. Yea you would need a sawz-all to fit those with a level, lol.

I think the 7" lift is the 4.5" spindles with a 2.5" spacer?? I think that part of it would stiffen the ride up again almost like you only had a leveling kit. I know with this spindle lift, the ride (IMO) is just as good and smooth as stock. But I would be curious to know how the ride is with the full 7" kit.

Actually I am upgrading from the 4.5 maxtrac with 3" rear coils to 7" and swapping 35's for 37's Sean have me the parts and numbers. Front is new springs and longer shocks and the rear is a set of spacers. This just seems small now. Rides great though.

Dang! Where have you been! lol

HAHA Whats up brother??
Well, it seems I have done everything I've wanted to do to my truck, and not being able to go higher without a custom lift has gotten me to search for a 2500 lol So I've been on a Cummins forum trying to piece together my lift, wheels, and tires.

I hear ya. Good luck on the search. My wife is pregnant now and having a hard time getting in and out of mine. Kind of a safety concern for me. Thinking about pulling all my stuff and selling it and putting some 22s on it and calling it a day. Sucks I put all that effort and money into it. Sorry for the jack OP!
