Did the truck you saw have the same wheels as you? Remember wheel width and backspacing play as important a role in fitment as tire size.

your right, u just figured that since i have the backspacing that pro comp specifies with there lift that i wouldn't have a problem.
the thing is that they only put one tire one the front, and not the back, and my 35" procomps now measure 33.5" tall. and since they rubbed in the back and were not even close in the front i think maybe that was the problem? going somewhere else to get tires today so we will see.

just buy a 3 inch body lift on top of the suspension lift, that would easily clear those tires.
