Any tire larger than 33" will likely need a lift to keep things from rubbing, however, if you have access to that wheel/tire combo, you can always mount them to check things out. Also, with that tall of a tire, you will need to consider if the gearing currently in your truck will suffice for acceleration. In addition, the speedometer will need re-calibration with the larger tires.
