Default 37's on a 6 inch

Just put the lift on late last week.
6" Rough Country
37X12.50R20 Cooper Discoverer STT Pro
20X9 (+1mm) Fuel Maverick D542 Gunmetal

I spread the crash bars a pretty good amount with a port-a-power but still have some rubbing. There was no fender trimming or bumper trimming necessary, just the air dam.

I also swapped the 5.5" Rough Country block for a 4.5" and added a rear driveshaft spacer, since the new block didn't move the axle forward.

I got the 5.0 w/ 3.73 in anticipation of this wheel and tire combo. It still has plenty of power and I'm seeing about 15.5-16mpg hand-calculated with 80% hwy/20% city. Transmission temps are also staying just fine.
The 37X12.50R20 STT Pro (~76lbs) are actually lighter than 35X12.50R20 Toyo and Nitto Mud Terrains and the wheels are only 37lbs.

hmm... i still have a hard time believing it will run well on the highway with 3.73s, will it stay in O/D?

It really turns them no problem. They are a really light 37" tire, as mentioned earlier, lighter than 35" Toyo and Nitto MTs.

It cruises at 70mph in 6 gear at 1600-1700 RPM.
