I picked up a tiregate used to carry my 37" spare. Works as advertised and I can see out the back of the bed. A extra bonus. Now I can see the hybrid cars behind me so I dont roll over them. It is crazy how close people get to the back of other vehicles.

I'm not a gear expert, but won't you wreak havoc on your differentials with different size tires in case you need to 'limp home'?
I tried 37s on my 6 speed 07 with the g56. The gearing wasnt to bad it was the poor handling, poor braking, and overall feel of the truck. 35s were made for the cummins!!! Oh they were toyo mts and yes i played around with tire pressure. They just didnt agree with me. I see rigs all the time rollin around with 37s 38s ad 40s and i feel bad for them.

I'm not much into the hero look any more so I'd go 35 max. No spare tire is lame. Don't call me if you don't have a spare. A spare in the bed is a PITA but when I go on vacation I take an extra spare so in the hills I'm covered.
