Lift and 37" tires
Got a buddy wanting to run the Rancho 4" lift and 37's. I think it will clear based on my truck running 35's but has anyone actually tried it?
Please don't just say "it won't work" if you haven't actually had real world experience, want real world I've tried and it worked/didn't work and here's why.

I would say it could on stock rims or something close to that back spacing. I'm running a 4.5 rough country on my 12 f150 4x4 with 20x10s with -24 offset and rub pretty good. I had to trim a little bit of plastic but it works.

Didn't realize I did not post my tire size. I am running a 35x12.50. I know my wide rim choice and negative backspace has a lot to do with rub. I had a 97 ram 1500 4x4 that ran 37x12.50 swampers with no lift at all and they fit . It can be done on an f150 with just the right setup. Not sure how bad offroad it would rub for your friend but I think a daily driver would be ok.

Rancho now makes a 6" for the 2009-13 models... That would be a better option than doing the 4..

I'm running the Rancho 4" with a 18x9 (+18 offset) wheel and 325/65R18 Nittos and I had to trim some plastic on the front also. Very little but I did have to trim. The +12 offset will stick out a little further. I think 37" tires on that wheel will be a tough fit. Just my opinion...

Anyone actually figure out the needs backspace wise and suspension mods to run a 37x12.50 tire ?
