6" you might be able to go 38's, I got 35's on my 3" lift with a little rub.

Im going to get 6 pro comp lift and put 37s on it. I believe 37s will rub little. I like 37s on a 6 but 35s looks really nice. Lot people on the site have 35s.

If you have a stick shift, you might like 4.88 gears.
If you have a auto, you can uses 4.56 gears.
If your engine isn't really running at peck power, run 4.88 gears regardless.

^^^^ I personally think thats backward. Standards can use a lower gear than autos
