I don't think they would fit.
I have 37" SSR's and they come pretty close to hitting the back side of the fenderwell.

Not to mention, they already rub on the inner frame when cranked all the way.

They may possible work with a pretty large offset on some aftermarket wheels.

I think you'd need a 6" Lift to squeeze those on. No way they'd fit stock.

40" MTRs are out of the question. No way, no how.
Do 37"s, they're perfect.

Impossible with stock suspension-----I have a 6.5 inch FTS suspension lift and would not go with 40's without a significant wheel offset.

37's on stock are a stretch--adjusting the torsion bars with an air ride will help keep them from rubbing. There are disadvantages to adjusting the torsion bars though.

H2crazy,

I am running 37 MTRs on stock wheels with no adjustments to the torsion bars and have not had any rubbing on or off road.

Thanks,

Yeah, I've heard that the MT/R fit with no rubbing while the BFG MT's and the Swampers of the same size do rub a bit.

H2crazy-

Best of luck finding the MT/R's... There are quite a few of us on this forum who have been waiting for the 37's to become available...

I was under the impression they didn't exist http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

To all those that have them... damn you!
