A quick answer would be: with stock rims (5.5" backspace) 37x12.5 will fit but likely rub just a bit at full lock. If you go with aftermarket rims they typically have a shallower backspace (less wheel 'under' the truck...more wheel sticking out from your fenders); they usually have a 4.5" backspace, so you MIGHT be able to go to a 13.5 on the width. Check out the threads in the search I posted above.

4) I'd love an 'express' open for the sunroof...I always thought it was weird that it stopped short like that.

- Thanks for the help. Obviously some people didnt believe me when I stated I used the "search", but I guess if you dont put in the right words it wont search correctly for you. The info you gave me was alot better then what I recovered, which was mostly about extreme lifted trucks and wheels.

As for the express open, I wonder if it isnt something like my Tundra's rear window? The rear window would do the same thing, and it turned out there was just a plastic piece (I think since it has been so long ago that I did that mod) that you remove from the track. If someone could get me a blow up / parts break down picture of the sunroof with the track I could see and we might have the workings of an express open mod.
