37x12.50x17 BFG AT

Someone was telling me that the BFG 37x12.50x17 AT are actually only 36.3 (smallest actually 37 ive found). And that i could fit with just a little trimming on a basic pro comp stage 1 kit. I saw pics so i know hes runnin it, but i just wanted some other input on this. I know i posted a bunch about 37's, but im nervous about doin it but im tired of only have 35's it just seems like everyone around here has em.

I'm sure you could with the right wheel. It would have to be on the narrow side with a lot of backspacing. Personally, I think a set of wider 35's on wider wheels would look better.

There was one member here who ran 37s with just a 6" lift with nor rubbing. It just has to be the perfect wheel and tire combo.

I agree with Wandell, besides as far as ride height you won't notice that much of a difference with that brand of tire. I would also add a leveling kit and find a true 37" if you want a difference.
