does anyone have a photo of their truck lifted with 18x12 wheels? if so, please post it. I want to buy some for my 04 Dodge and I wanta see what they look like.... also include tire size you are running, and how many inches of lift necessary to achive this......
I'm kinda leaning toward
37x13.50x18 Toyo or BFG 18x12 wheel 6" suspension/3" body (9" total)

If you have a IFS truck, I would stay away from the 12 wide wheels. They will cause your front suspension parts to wear out ALOT faster. With those tires you are looking at, you can put them on a 10 wide wheel. I have a set of 38X15.50 on a set of 18X10's. Good luck man.

I would throw the Mickey Thompson MTZs 38X15.5 under there. IMO I think they look better then the Toyos. And BFG doesn't make a tire that big. The 37's on your truck would look kind of small.

i don't mind running 38s thats only 1 inch taller than a 37....if thats whats required. i just like 18x12s with bushwhacker flares.....because i like tires and wheels that stick out a little ways from under the fender

With the 38X15.5 you can still run your 18X12's. Just with the 13.5's the 18X12's will be a bit wide for that tire. And since you have a straight axle, I would run the 12 wide wheels. I wanted to, but have IFS on my truck.
