Default 41.5 inch Pitbull off road tires.....will they fit?

I'm running 37x12.5 nitto muds with no issues, I want to keep the same 20x9 inch wheel and put on a 41.5x13.5, pitbull said there is no issue as far as it fitting on the rim, I just have to play with air pressure, which is fine. Makes sense, only taking about an inch of width. My main question is if i put a 3in body lift on her, along with my 6inch BDS and my level, will the setup fit? I have an nfab front bumper on also, so the only fitment issue will probably be the pinch welds. Any info will help, thanks.

Can't anwer whether or not it will fit, but I predict carnage in the front suspension. It'll look awesome though

Might still need cut-out flares. Pitbull tires are also VERY heavy, unless you drop to at least 4.88s you'll notice that dead weight and increased diameter. Are you running factory gearing with your 37's?

No solid front axle, however I did beef up the front suspension with fox coilovers and ready lift upper control arms and steering kit. I've been on 37 inch muds for about 2 years now with no problems, and yes I still have the stock 373 gears. I know i will need to do a gear swap in the future.

they should fit. but i wouldn't try and push it off road. your cv shafts won't like it. stay on the pavement and you should be ok.

Lol doesnt offset the weight and wear and tear on BJ's, tre's, wheel bearings, etc.
