If you trim them nice I bet you could run 37s you may have to space them out to be able to turn though

Ya I have a long running debate about that in my head. I'm going to put an 8.8 in the rear but when I get that big my d30 will not be sufficient.... I want to do it right and would have to upgrade a lot. Those are chopped pretty high!

I was running 33s with a ton of flex when I chopped them that high, my 37s can't get all the way up there, if I were you I would run the 37s as is and baby it just to make sure you want to go that big and then I would upgrade to 1 tons if I wanted to run the 37s
