Off topic... how have you liked your Duratracs?
Back on topic, sort of... would you have stuck with Duratracs if they came in a 37"?
Really back on topic... who's had a stock wheel rubbing issue with a 37" tire on the upper control arm?
Also, post pics of new red label 37" tires not mounted to make thread more interesting!

I'm not sure what size they ar talking about but I know it happens with a 13.5" wide 37" tire on stock rims that's why I went with a Nitto tire that is only 12.5" wide in a 37" size.

I imagine a 13.50 would rub on UCA... My 37-12.50's rubbed through the hub vacuum lines that run on the outside of the UCA and spindles. Had to re-reoute them.

I went with 1.5" spacers. The red letters on factory wheels are gonna be an issue. I have fiberwerx fenders and almost tore them off before I figured out the tires were just too big for stock suspension. I put my BFG's on and headed to TRR. Had a blast not worrying about destroying my truck's fiberglass.

I had the same thing happen to mine. I wish Ford would have run them a different way from the factory but it's an easy fix.
