You will need the 3" body that tire is 15.5" wide and when it gets turning you would rub. I have the same size and it needed the extra 3". If you have not got the lift yet though it may be worth looking in to a 9" or better. The part that suck about the body lift is the bumpers. The rear is the worst b/c of all the crap that get flung in to it, and locks the bolts on. Also my tires are on 10" wheel and seem to be fine. There are most likley more of a selection with a 10". Here is a few pics of mine: 7.5 super lift, ford keys, aal, 3inch body

P.O.R.N your truck looks bad a** I'm just not to fond of putting a body lift, that was my whole purpose of paying the extra bucks and getting a suspension lift. Thats way I went with ford keys and add-a-leaf, but I'll still have to do some fender trimming. I'll post some pic's up when I get my wheels and tires after Christmas or after I get my tax return. The only reason I'm going with 36x15.5x20 Michey Thompson MTZ is because I did some research and thats one of the longest and agressive tires for the money not to mention a little to no noise in the cab. I wish they made that tire in 35x13.5x20 but oh well I don't want to go with 18's I know they have it in that size.

By the way do you have a font or back picture without the wheels turn I want to see how much the wheels stick out? And are the fender flare you have 2 inch wide? I am planning on putting in the bushwacker pocket fender, and I just want to get an idea how the truck is going to look. thanks
