Really want 37" tires, but....

[IronRaptor]

Here are the pics!!!

The pic with the big red circle is the inner fender liner cut back to avoid rubbing. The little circle is the very bottom corner of the fender flare trimmed to give the extra clearance. Hopefully this helps. Let me know if there are any other questions. I drove the left front tire up a steep back to flex it out, then went lock to lock and happy to report no rubbing. So far so good. I am driving to the Cascades this weekend about 700 miles round trip towing my 9K trailer with me. Will update after I return...

That looks great! Truck was made for 37's. Let us know how it was after your trip, and thank you for being quick to reply and honest with how it is for you.

Thanks Fenderstrat appreciate the compliment. I agree the 37's look like they belong on the truck. I was really surprised at how normal they looked. On my Jeep rubicon 37's are massive, but this truck just looks right with them. Here is my toy I am towing down just for the hell of it...

That is a big camper! How do you do in wind?

 

[IronRaptor]

Surprising well. I am not going to lie though sometimes it catches me unaware and I grip the wheel a little tighter, that usually happens whena semi passes me, but for the most par I have had very few issues. My wife drives it for about a third of the trip and she feels totally in control. At first I was really nervous pulling something that big, but now I am totally used to it. I also have a weight distribution and sway control hitch that is a must towing something this big...

I understand that. Wind is always blowing here in Wyoming. Have a good safe trip and enjoy the 37's. the truck sits like it should now. Let me know if you have any issues! I hope it works great for you

That trimming doesn't look bad at all. I cut wayyy more than that on my 07. Looks like I'll be going to 37s next time also

Looks great, love the pic's and that's one big trailer LOL. It rocks with the 37's. Glad to hear no major issues so far! Our Warehouse Mgr. is camping up at Baker Lake all weekend, where ya headed? We don't have any big plans but might drive around some in the Raptor just for fun!

 

[IronRaptor]

Thanks Steele and G&P I don't know if I would have done without the help from this board. Anyway I honestly don't know where we are going. My wife plans everything and I just drive there LOL. We always take lots of pics and I will try to include some raptor stuff in this time. Have fun driving the raptor around...

love the 37s, my only fear is that you cant jump it without ripping the fender off.
