3" body lift and I believe a Fabtech 6"-7" Suspension lift
20x10 moto metal 951s
tires are 37x13.50x20 Nitto Mud Grapplers
Only trim he had to do was a little on the front valence

Thats not my truck... thats a guy on GMFS. I think his front sits a tad higher just because he put some kinda spacer upfront. As far as the 13.5" wide tire on a 9" wide wheel.. youd be suprised what you can make fit when you have alot of side wall. That being said... do a little pokin around at some tires lookin at the recommended rim widths, not quite sure if youll be able to get a 13.5 on a 9" wide wheel. I at one time ran a 12" wide tire on a 8" wide wheel and never had any problems

some recommend 9-11 inch wheels and others 10-12 inch wheels on the same width tire. I don't think 13.5 would be a problem. I just can't decide on just to do the suspension lift, since I have to drive all the time, and sometimes 600 miles at a time. Or go for the suspension and the body lift. Heres some trucks that are bad ***.
one has a 4 inch lift with 20 inch wheels and 33
one has 7 Fabtech with 20 inch wheels with 35
the big one has 12 inch lift with 22 inch wheels and 37 I believe.

rubbing is not an issue as long as your on stock rims, theres alot of guys recently on gmfullsize running 37s on stock rims and a level crank, so back spacing on your rims are everything

Anything over a 35 will be very harsh on those half ton front hub assemblys.......my buddy ran a 6 inch with a 3 inch body lift and 16.5 X 12 wheels with 38.5's. We had lots of rear end probs and lost a front wheel on the highway at 80 when the front hub locked up!!! The other side started goin bad shortly after that....
