I'm putting on 6'' lift, should I go 18's or 20's "what are your thoughts" thanks

Like the title says i'm putting on a 6'' lift on my tundra a can't choose if i wanna go 18's or 20's. what is yalls thoughts and opinions. thanks for your input. Also, you think 37x12.50 are to tall for the 6'' lift. Sometimes when I see a lifted tundra it seems there is to much wheel well with the 35's.

18s with 37s would be perfect. 37s really complete a 6" lift

let me ask you this, with going with the 37's will i need to do something with the gear ratio or does the standard ratio with the 5.7 work fine? i just dont wanna burn anything up. would i run into any other problems minus fuel economy with the 37's

i have been leaning to the 18's if i got with 35's and 20's if i got 37's. i like a little more rubber than the 20's on 35's and i think 37's on 18's would be to much rubber

make sure the 37's will fit

alot of times people putting 37's have to get a super narrow tire to fit on only a 6" lift .. and narrow tires look weird

i dont think so

when i talked to my guys who did my lift, they said that 37's would run like crazy

i have seen 1 tundra with a 6" fabtech lift have 37's on it

just make sure they wont rub

cause when i crank my truck all the way, i have about 1/2 an inch before i start rubbing and i have 35's, i dont see how 37's wont rub

Put the 37's with 20's. I like testing the limits haha. Although on this question like 5 ppl have already done what you want to do. You'll be fine just test fit them first. You could be a rebel and try 38's. Let us know what you do.
