Max tire size with 4.5 lift on '08
What is the tallest tire and width you can run with a 4.5 lift. Manufacturer of the lift (icon) says 35s, but I know you can run 35s with a 2.5 leveling kit.

I have the DR 4.5" lift and 35s. I could easily fit 37s and will next time I need tires.

35's can be run on your truck with no lift at all (check my sig). I'm sure you can run 37's with 4.5".
