It's 37'' tires, not 37' tires.
I've seen it done, but doesn't mean it should be. I think it will depend more on wheel offset then the tire itself. Why not run 35's? 37's are alot of tire for these half ton axles. Better re-gear as well.

Seen it done in town before, that same truck ended up with a blown motor, tho i donno if it had anything to do with it. If your gonna do that your gonna wanna upgrade your axles and regear for sure!
