6" plus a leveling kit will fit 37s

It fits 37's. Talk to the guy HK on here. He just started a thread with pics of his new lift with 40's today. He had the BDS 6" lift and 37's before though.

Got it. I didn't know exactly what he had. I just know he ran 37's with the bds. Nice truck BTW. That thing is a beast!

He had a BDS 6" kit but also had an add a leaf in the back and coilovers in the front which gave an extra 2" of lift so he really was sitting at 8" lift with the 37's

Default 37's on 6" BDS

I am running Nitto Trail Grappler 37x12.50 20's on a BDS lift. Pushed the bumper out about 3/4 of an inch, rubs just slightly when truck is flexed. I'll be honest, I don't know the offset of the rims. I regeared to 4.88. Runs great.
