Go with 33's. I have a dodge mega cab 6 in lift with 37's. Biggest mistake I should have stayed with 35's. It looks great but rubs real bad in the front. That rubbin gets real annoying
Really??? Im runnin 37x12.5x17's on stock rims on my mega cab with zero rubbing issues. "the sun is shining somewhere in texas" -Jason Boland it depends on the year model though |

They should not be rubbing. But where are they rubbing? What size Dodge Mega Cab? 1500, 2500, or 3500? I can make them fit with a 6" lift no problem. If they are rubbing there is a fix and you don't need more lift or to even cut the fenders. What is the wkeel offset on your rims? Are they stock? Shops are bad for selling wheels that almost fit just to make a buck. |

that wide of a tire, you should have 3-4" of backspace. with my 13.5 tires, i had 20x10 with a 4" backspace and i didnt have any issues except when i went to a full collapse on the shock, and in a full turn, it would rub a lil then.

They should fit no problem. Where are you located? I would bet it is the plastic in the wheel well. Turn the wheels all the way and then turn the truck off so the strearing wheel lock hold them. then look at both sides to see where it is rubbing. The plastic is easy to trim. |

What difference does the tire brand make?
Some 35's are taller than others Yup, BFGs tend to run smaller... Nittos run on or larger. |

We cut the plastic, but when I have a lot of friends in the truck it rubs pretty good |

I believe your problem is the aftermarket rims with the change in offset, also my tires are 12.5 wide.....couldnt go 13 wide because of the dual rearwheel.

We bought the truck like this from the dealership. Just went from 35's to 37's. It was considered the southern comfort edition for dodge. My pops friend bought it in black.

They send that out to a shop. Stiffer springs would help you if you want to keep your friends. Most lifts use lighter springs for more flex. They are not made for carrying extra weight. Check with a 4x4 shop and see if they can get you heavier springs. If your trans keeps going out then you need to adjust the transmission angle. |
