4 used toyo MT's in 37/13.5/20 for 325 bucks!!! guy says they have under 10k miles on them and the tread looks pretty good still at least in the pics. only problem is that one has a cut in the sidewall but holds air still and he drove on it for a while and didnt have any problems. so what i might do is get one more new and keep that one for a spare. i also have to drive to PA to pick them up (i think thats why nobody else bid on em) but thats just an excuse for a roadtrip with the buddies! i also can pay him when i get there so if they are not how they look in the pics then i dont have to get em. so needless to say im pretty psyched cause i was planning on spending over a grand more than that for a new set, and if i even get one or 2 summers out of these then they were worth it considering the cheapest ive seen those tires was $370 each for that size! so im hopefully going down friday after work, maybe stop in Philly for the night, do some partying and maybe catch the flyers game on saturday then pick em up and come back sat night or sunday, should be a good time. anyways, heres the pics from ebay, theyre not the greatest so ill have to get some more when i get em home.

Good deal man. We met at carlisle last year with FSC....now I got a 2500...looking to see how your 37's fit with the 6" before I order tires.

hey Backinblack, whats up? im hoping they fit without having to do anymore lift. i think i might have to lose the mudflaps and maybe trim a little more but i think it should work without having to do a body lift. the only thing that sucks is that im gonna have to wait untill spring to put em on with my chromes so im gonna have to stare at them in the garage for the next 2 or 3 months, its gonna be torture! i might have to get em mounted up anyways and try em out for some snow wheeling one of these weekends. wish i could find some black 20's for cheap to run for the winter.

I feel your pain. My lift is sitting in boxes in the cellar. How did the full traction lift the rear? blocks? How high? I'm just trying to get a feel for where my 6" superlift is gonna put me. It comes with a 5" block. I've thought about setting it low and running 35's with a 4" spring pack. Or setting it a little higher with an add a leaf or 6" springs and trying to run 37's again.

my lift used 5" blocks for the rear, then i cranked the front up to level it so my fronts sitting about 8" higher than stock. i might replace the back springs and blocks some day with 6" springs but for now it rides fine still. if i get some time ill have to measure the fender heights but if i remember correctly i think they were around 46" in the front and maybe a half inch higher in the back with the 33's. ill have to bring my camera to work one day cause i work with 2 guys that have stock 2500HD's and my truck looks so much bigger next to them.

Thanks for the info. I think I'm right around 41.5-42 with the 285's and a t-bar crank now....so we'll see. I think the biggest measurment I need is from the center of the hub to the flare...that's how I always measured the old truck, so I've still got those specs for reference.

well i got the tires last weekend and they are even better than i thought they would be, 2 are perfect and the other 2 have a little tread chop, kid said he likes to do a lot of burnouts so i guess thats where thats from, but they still have great tread and look like they will last a long time so im pretty stoked! was well worth the 6 hour drive for that deal. now i just gotta get em mounted, im gonna try doing one this weekend but i dont know if my tire machine is big enough to do 37's, guess ill find out.
