Default 20x14 fuel hostage wheels 14.5x36" grapplers on 2010 bighorn?

ok so far i have a 2 1/2" leveling kit 2 1/2" in front and a 1" rear coil spacer sits pretty level and just ordered a 3" body lift...im also getting a 6" rcx lift along with all that....and hoping the wheels and tires will fit anybody know of anyone running these badboys on our trucks yet???

37's fit with a 6" lift. You're issue will be the 20x10 wheels with 14.5" tires. these will not clear and you will have to trim. How much you have to alter depends on your backspacing

Well I'm sure you don't plan to keep the 3" leveling kit on top of the 6" suspension lift..That would be bad..With 9" of lift (6" and body lift) you can fit 37s easy but that wide of a tire and wheel would surely rub the fenders

20x12s and 37x13.5 fit a 2500 with an 8" lift but that's still gonna be 2.5 to 3 inches taller then your truck with the susp and body lift. I think you're gonna rub bad with 14 wides. 12s might work and 10s obviously will. I just noticed you plan on keeping the 3" level? I think you're gonna do some serious damage to the front suspension of your truck with that wheel/tire/lift/level combo. A 2500/3500 would be a truck to go that big IMO

FWIW.....a guy had a 2wd with a CST 7" lift, 3" body lift and 38x15.50's on 20x12 with -44 offset with no rubbing.

Not sure if he is on here....I saw it on *********...

I have a 6" procomp and want to add a 3" body lift with the same wheel/tire combo....might add bilsteins too if I have to.

That truck rubbed really badly, there were pics on here. It was RawRam before it had the custom lift and paint

i should have meationed im getting terra grapplers in that size (muds wear too fast for me)
also i messed up on that leveling kit its a 2 1/2 inch with a 1 inch in the rear.

i got my body lift on yesterday and its sitting pretty high ill post pics. if i had to guess tho its looking like a 7" lift on a 2wd....im pretty sure another 6 will get it up higher than enough for 36s

also thankfully the 6 inch lift lowers everything (control arms spindles crossmember) so running the leveling kit wont damage anything, i saw pics of the cv axles with the same leveling kit as me before and after a 6" bds lift. axle angle actually looked the same if not better after the 6". (also lowers the transfer case )


but i will post pics of stock,leveled, and leveled with 3 inch body...then with the 6" as well
