I also say go with the 37's. I think that it would make your truck look even that much better. Even though it already is the best truck on this forum. SO since you already know what tires your getting and no one can change your mind then let us in on what tires your getting!

Long and short of it is, ide get 37's itd look AWESOME man....I still gotta get you your pictures of that guys dodge on 17's with 37x13.5

I would love to see you beast with 37's, but I would really hate to see it with body damage on your truck. Split it and go with 36's and regear.

Mud Grapplers FTW!!!!!! Based on the info you gave 35's seem like the best choice.....although 37's would be kick ***. im gonna stay neutral and just not vote.

Oh and BTW...that 37x13.50x17 MG measures out to 14.27 inches wide so you might better take that in to account to avoid body damage

my truck and steel wheels do not go together. you do realize i bought a 15x10 alloy as a spare. i hate steel wheels.

i will destroy and ruin a set of alloys before i ever buy steelies. yuck!

only worried about width in the snow. otherwise the wider the better. :)

when you are busting snow drifts, which i love to do, the wider the tire the more it pulls you one way or another instead of cutting through it.

since you cant go fast with it pulling you all over its not as fun. got to love the snow and stuff flying up.
