And my self edumacation on the internet is not going well. Here’s the setup I wants…


Carli 3.25 pin top lift on 3500 4WD longbed
Cali Offroad Rakwons 24x12
Nitto ridge grapplers 37x13.5R24

Will this have a problem? I have seen a lot of setups on here so I know it’s close. And can I got to a 38? Haha

Is this for a mall crawler?
If you plan on doing any off roading or want a smoother ride, I'd stick with 17 or 18 inch rims.
Those 24s are going to make for a rough ride. Not much sidewall to flex and soak up the bumps.
 
I live in boca raton, fl. Other that a few camping trips a year to the center of the state or the keys which is still flat as hell there won’t be a whole bunch of rock crawling for me.

And IMO doesn’t look like too much of the mall crawler style even at that size. I have seen them a few times with those tires

With that wide of a wheel and that offset, I think you're going to need to do some really aggressive cutting at the pinch weld to reduce the rub. Browsing through the Custom Offset gallery with others running the same width and same or similar offset, even those with 6" and 6.5" lifts still rub after trimming.

If you have a Crew Cab with that long bed I imagine you'd be doing 35 point turns in order to get into a parking spot (if that matters).
 
Yea instead of listen to people on the internet I went into a shop that actually knows what they are talking about and not the local idiot who said it would also work. Needless to say…….

Going 20x10s and we are gonna try to squeeze some 37s in! I only wanted the 24s with chunky tires, if I couldn’t have that going in a completely different direction. No interest on 22s with 35s. Saw these two videos and realized you can definitely squeeze some **** in. Dude pulled off 37x13.5s on the 3.5 carli

All in all very good education for me. I now understand all the math behind wheel and tire figment in almost every truck lol.
