i just did a 5" superlift, 35" toyo m/ts and 20s, and its is big!

you could probably clear 37s on the rims I have with this kit tho, but i think 35s look just right

the top truck is mine as of yesterday, and the other trucks are some i found in my research...all of them except mine and the charcoal grey truck have 37s, but they all have 20s

i thought you said you wanted to see 37s..whoops, but there some 35s in the mix..my blue truck has 4.5 inch backspacing, and they come close to rubbing at full lock

the difference in 17 and 20s is only a few hundred dollars, and worht every penny, it handles very nice in the turns due to the smaller sidewalls, also, make sure to get the bilteins, they have an awesome ride, and I will praise this lift kit, truely amazing ride, only thing i would do different is get some leaf pack made custom for the back rather then AALs

if you tried turning with this much backspacing and only a 2" leveling kit, you wouldnt have fenders
