I'm going to be getting my first f150 this weekend (06 King Ranch) and my plan is to put a 6 inch lift on it. I'd like 20x10 or 20x12 rims and I'm curious if the 37's will fit without any issues, or if I need the 35's for this set up. I don't plan on taking it off roading all that often, maybe just a few times a year with my friends that have trucks. I'd love to hear all feedback and ideas. I'm pretty new to the truck scene.

Thanks Guys

Yes 37's will rub a lot, I think. Also, 10" is plenty of rim width. Even with 35's you're going to take a pretty big hit, power wise. The best case is if the truck currently has 3.73 gears, that'll maximize power to the wheels. I would start budgeting for a gear swap. After going to 35's on my '05, I re-geared to 4.56 and it's a whole new truck.

Even if you get enough lift to clear 'em, 37s are WAY too much tire for that truck. You'll tax the **** outta your diff(s), axles, trans, brakes.. 1/2 tons just don't have the components to handle that big of a tire. Hell, even 3/4 tons should be re-geared for 37s-at the very least.
You'll even wanna re-gear with 35's

37s will fit with a 6” lift depending on the actual tire size ( some 37” tires are really only 36.5 inches) and lift kit brand. I fit 37” nitro terra grappler g2s on my 2004 with a 6” rough country lift. All I had to trim was the plastic piece below the front bumper. It ran fine with no rubbing at all but I ended up doing a 3” body lift and 4.56 gears.
