Yeah, but I have seen some trucks with just a leveling kit and 35's that had more room then that. Maybe the Toyo's measure closer to a 36" tire.

Looks good man. Did you install the lift yourself or have someone do it for you?

Everything (lift, wheels, tires, labor) cost me ~$3,500. The tires don't rub or even touch the wheel well at all, even over bumps. The shocks make the ride really smooth, but I bought the Nitro shocks, so maybe you were disappointed with their Hydro series?

Thanks for all the compliments

Haha, I wish. That'd be a monster of a truck. Unfortunately for me, its only a 4.7, and a 2wd, so I wouldn't be able to support or move tires that big

Very nice, truck looks awesome! I've been wanting to do the same to my truck. This serves as inspiration

How much was the labor alone? I'm wondering how much I could save if I installed the kit myself.
