Planning on off-roading moderately or hard? You'll need new fenders or you're going to bust them up...at minimum mid perch and hammer down the pinch welds to get you some breathing room.

Thank's, i dont plan on jumping it or anything too hardcore but that's what i did'nt want to worry about eating the fender's if i do get a little crazy. I might just go with 35 12.50 since they are more reasonable and a lot more choice's.

There are many factors to consider when going to 37's and you need very deep pockets. It's one of those be careful what you wish for kind of deals.

He should be ok since he's mainly using it on the road, mid perch and some trimming on stock wheels and he'll be ok...depending on the weight of the 37s he chooses he may get away with just a tune and not regearing...

Yeah i thought about the slippery slope, Like most i'd like a supercharger anyway and since those wheel's are heavy i'll most likely go with 35's since i can get better deal's on those and won't eat the fender's if i do get a little crazy. Now i need to get rid of the 33's so i can put her summer shoe's on lol.

Weight wise the bfg at ko2 are going to be about 7lbs heavier per tire over stock 35s and measure around 36.5 inches. If you're adding a super charger potentially or even just a tune you should be ok with that setup without having to regear, which can be costly unless you can do it yourself. If you ran something like a toyo mt, then yes, regearing is necessary bc those things weigh a ton and the power loss will be noticeable...
