I would get the 37s if you are seriously considering them and then if they rub too much throw on a spacer and an add-a-leaf. or a body lift. josiah does have cranked coilovers but I think he still rubs.

I have a 2005 f150 with 6 in fabtech and I run 37x13.50 x 20" mud grapplers on mine with no rubbing at all and I am thinking about going up to a 38 in something else cause my grapplers are about wore out but they were awsome while they lasted

i dont know if these guys have chimed in cause i didnty look at all the posts

but yeah josiah is on 37's and fabtech kit, but he isnt cranked at all, but i know he has done a good amount of trimming. there is atleast 2 other guys on here with 37;s on the pro comp/fabtech kit cause i remember looking at them before i lifted my truck but i cant remember there names sorry.

and trooks is on 36's on 6 inch fabtech.

and yes i am on 38;s on the Rize 8"

before i lifted my truck and went to a few off road places they all said they can do 37's on the 6 inch fabtech or pro comp with proper trimming.

i say go for it.

I'm guessing you have a AAL or taller blocks in the rear? It looks like you are a little taller in the rear. Are you running fabtech shocks with a red boot? You’re not running a spacer on the front, correct?

BTW, good looking truck.
