Default Lifted trucks with 37x13.50 tires?

Hey guys every lift I see says the biggest tire you can run is a 37x12.50. I was wondering if anyone has tried 37x13.50? Im sure there is some rubbing but I was just curious if anyone knows exactly where or what. Obviously if you get the right bs you wont rub on the control arms...im thinking front bumper cover maybe rear of fender well?

If anyones tried it or has the ability to please post your results!

I think with a 6" lift you could easily fit something bigger than 37s. Theres someone on here with a 4" lift and they fit 37s underneath it.... so Im sure with a 6" lift you could easily cram bigger rubber on.

I've got a 6" superlift with 35 and theres tons of room leftover

I've Got 37x13.50R-17s on my Jeep, and its wheels have the same bolt pattern (5 on 5 1/2) as the '09 1/2 ton Ram, with 4 1/2" backspacing. Put the lift on your truck and bring it buy, we'll swap tires and take your truck for a test ride to see if they fit. Going to be a long drive coming all the way from New Jersey though.
