When I bought my truck it had a suspension 4 inch lift skyjacker stuff on 35s with 17 alloy Mickey Thompsons the 35s I got 5k out of never chirped the 35s once put on some aluminum 16.5s with 33s (both 12.5 wide) way faster and lays some rubber off the line! Get some aluminum rims and 33s cheaper and lighter then 35s

Stock 33's will fit. 4" lift and 35's work nicely. They won't rub off road. You will definitely feel 35's in the pedal though.

Ive got a 3 inch body lift and 33's but mine would clear 35's w/ out rubbing and wouldnt need to cut anything.

Mine is 6" soft ride skyjacker with 38.5" x 11.00". When i ran 35's it looked goofy, too small of tire for the lift in my opinion. If i could do it again i would only lift mine 4" and run 35's.
