I ran 37x13.5's toyo MT's on 17x10 rims with -22mm offset. 6" fabtech lift and trimmed valance and inner fender.

The 37's in the rear had about an inch clearance to each side and if you put any more than about 500lbs in the back they rubbed the fender trim. Front rubbed if you were in a turn and hit a bump. If you go with the 6" lift and crank the t bars up in the front and add 2" blocks in the back then I could see it?

The fabtech list I had installed came with 4" blocks for the rear that were added to the factory 2" block so they were stacked.. doesnt seem like a 6" lift with only adding 4" to the rear? Not sure how that worked but I ended up adding an add a leaf to give it an extra 1.5" back there. If you do that and put a tapered 6" block you can clear them.

You can see the rub marks on the fender trim in this pic
