TonkaTruck had a 6 inch pro comp and 3 inch body and was running, 38's. if it was my truck id run bilsteins up front gain an extra 2 inches, add-a-leaf in the back, and get some 37's.

I believe TonkaTruck is also running the bilsteins and he fit 38x15.5

I think a 12.5 would look to thin with that big of lift.

What are the advantages of running 37's instead of getting the 3" body and running 38's? And i also meant i want my tires 13.50" wide. Also, what size gears would yall go with?

4.88's with anything over 35's

IMO the only advantage would be that the 37 would be somewhat lighter because I believe most of the 38's come in 15.5. Also with the body lift you would have to relocate your hitch and muffler.
