    Brother I hope you know that I ain’t judging you. Quite the contrary. I’m all for you doing whatever you want to do to your truck. I was just pointing out now that I’m old I drive a stock truck. 
    @SGH Not you brother, neighborhood folk.  I understand completely.

    I don’t know about the rims and tires, but what’s up with the KJ jack?

    @SGH I understand.  Never had a new truck, and pops hammered me when I bought this one.  Saved for 3 years to buy it outright but people still question how I can buy a 3500HD and assume I finance it.

    Now I lift it and want to put wheels and tires on it and there's more judgement.  I expected it from the forum since nobody knows who I am in real life, but it's funny how it happens in the neighborhood too even when you don't solicit anybody else's opinion
    That’s awesome that you bought the truck with cash!  
      To offer a true opinion I will need a picture of the whole truck, also one with the 37” tires. 
      If the 37s rub they rub. 
     Finally t@TEXASBGE2018 has a point, big rims need big tires If you are going for the off road look. A smaller rim will accomplish the same this as a bigger tire

     You were rolling in a $60k truck you bought with saved money? Mine was $6k  =)

    Hahaha...hardly.  I don't have any problem with vehicle vanity... I'm just trying to be funny.  My HS was country and half the boys coveted jacked up trucks.  I went with the vanity sports car.  260Z with rims, fender flares, spoilers, etc.

    I drive a $3200 used truck I bought with a bad motor.  Fixed the motor (broken  valve).  Moves stuff perfectly.

    Wheels throw it off. I like more sidewall.

    That said Im not sure 37's will fill in enough to change the look enough but I would like to see a pic of them

    Where do you drive this truck?  Is clearance a consideration or is this an urban chariot?

    I do not have a dog in this fight and I’m glad you paid cash money and had money left over for the lift and wheels that make you happy. 

    That said- you solicited EVERYONE’s opinion. 

    Stay golden pony boy.

    Are 35's too small, or should I cut/trim a bunch of stuff off a new '18 to fit 37's.    I'm saying 35's, but it's only my money... somebody else spend it for me
    Looks like a first purchase from a newly signed NFL running back drafted right out of High School. You just need to buy some gold house house numbers and mount them on the fender or side window...{ 22" }

    Do you live in Blytheville Arkansas? Not a problem if so, just trying to think of the handful of locations left in the US where this would “make your truck look good”.

    Not as denim jacket-y as I thought it was going to be.
