Cheapest way and easiest way to fit some 37s....

Xil3dsmurf · Oct 20, 2014

I know it's probably asked a lot..but what would be the cheapest and easiest way to fit some 37s on the truck? Just trying to figure out my options and kinda wanna get an estimate of how much it will run me. And how much would it effect the gas mileage. Excuse me if this is a dumb question, but the raptor is my first truck. Lol

So the bfg aren't really 37? They tend to run a little smaller?

They are slightly larger than 36".

Recap so one doesn't have to read through 46 pages of a thread?
Stopped when saw comments of trimming. Replacement fenders now?

After rise of the Phoenix I'm going to recommend you don't do it if you intend to off-road at all. While I have stock suspension, I busted the fender liner out of the driver's during some jumps and I have stock wheels and tires. My concern wouldn't be the fender liner, it would be whether or not the wiring harnesses that are popped into it pop out when you stuff the tire into it and rip it off.

Thanks, thinking of this upgrade too. If you do things right, then there is no "cheap" way to do this so might was well spend the money or spend more later fixing.

That's my theory. You could relocate those harnesses and probably have no more damage than replacement of a fender liner, depending on your offset and a couple other things. I'll personally hold off until I can afford glass. Especially with stock suspension.

Glass is cheap. The paint job for a Ruby Red metallic is what is going to be killer dollars.

Which tires are you running? Perch setting?
