Alright guys.... I just got sized up and the 20's with 37x 13.50 will be perfect. The 22's is too much action for me. thanks.

I would say you will most likely have rubbing issues with those for sure. I had 22's on mine with low profiles on stock suspension, and I had rubbing in the front on the frame. I dropped the rims to 20's, and upped the tires to 37.5, and had to lift it. There's no way those tires would clear the frame unless the rims set the tires out far enough, or you had a lift, or different steering knuckles. Not to mention, every time you go over a bump, while turning, you might rub.

Thanks for the replies. So, I understand exactly what you are saying about the 22?s and that idea is out. My tire guy basically echo?d the same things as you did. Ok, so with 37x13.5 -20?s?.. My tire guy said I should be good. Is he correct? He has claimed to install these with no issues. My rims are 20x9

depends on back space/ offset. Your sway bar up front will get rubbed. Most stock setup's will do this on onse side at full turn. no worries. Many of have run that, wheeled that, and no issues, smae with the frame up front...and long as it is not excesive. 13.50 looks great. Keep in mind if you have rear air sups. you need to keep an eye on your rear sensor arms inside that wheel well. I can only assume you ar enot going to wheel the truck sinceyou were looking at 22's, so you should have no issues.

I ran 18 x 9 with 5" back space and a 35 x 12.50 Toyo MT tire, and have comparible rubbing as with stock. You will get more with the 13.50 wide and 37" diamter, but nothing major. Have him test fit the fronts.

Or list up what wheel/ tire make/ model you are looking into. More than likely, someone has your setup already.

I run a 22x12 KMC Rockstar and 37x13.50x22 Kumho Road Venture KL71 tires and I had a slight rub at about 3/4 turn on the inner fender. I had the tire shop crank the torsion bars to level out the rig and now it doesn't rub anywhere....

You should really consider a 20x10 rim if your tire is 13.5 wide.. 20x9 may show too much bulge from your tire sidewall. I went with a 20x10 one-peice rim on 36x13 tires. I get minor rub when reversing with the steering wheel turned extreme left or right.
