[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1412034, member: 31322"] I thought similar, in pics it looks that way but walking up to a gen2 raptor in person w/ stock wheels/tires that had geysers & +2 deavers (I would go +3 for the rake) the tires didn’t look out of place at all to me. Maybe at some angles it seemed like there’s more gap than should be top of tire to bottom of fender but on the other hand IN PERSON a raptor w/ same stance but 37”s looked more out of wack b/c the gap between front/rear of tire to fender flares is like nothing, while the fender well Looks more “full” & very much like you’d maybe expect from the factory, the gap front/rear is so tight it’s clear the tires are stuffed in w/ a maybe a hair to spare & trimming involved. So depending on your preference it can go either way. I will day this though- other 1/2 tons would need significant trimming, aftermarket shocks/A-arms, body lift and/or suspension lift combo JUST to fit 35”s, forget about 37”s!!! GM K2 gen trucks need to lift 2” just to clear 33”s & you still need to trim. 35”s look right on a leveled F350, so- I’m reality you’re just forcing the case for 37”s if you’re trying to convince yourself 35”s look “small” on a leveled raptor by comparison. That being said- YOLO- if you think 37”s will look badass (I agree they do) then go for it....but it’s a lot of dough to throw down only to lose MPGs & acceleration/braking performance while also increasing your tire budget even worse than OEM @ same time lol [/QUOTE]
