DodgeNitto has 37's on his with a leveling kit, 3" rear lift, and a 3" body lift and still had to do minor trimming. He says they fit perfect after the trimming though.

According to my good friends at Peterson's Off Road, they say 4" of lift is needed to fit 37s with full articulation and no trimming with the stock rims.

My own FCIIs are gonna be for sale hopefully around the beginning of April, but now I'm not too sure. I just got dealt another financial blow I hadn't counted on, and the planned 3" body lift might have to be put on hold.
They are 35x12.5x17s with a good bit better than 90% tread. But Pyro's go 1st dibbs and I already promised second to someone else...

Well you fit 35's stock. with 2.5 level. And MAYBE spacers I dont see why another 2 inch of tire wouldn't work. I mean in my head at least, obviously hammer has proof to go against mine. but logically it make sense in my head. I might be crazy tho.
