Yes call him up and get what you want. The 37's will fit under a 6" lift without any issues at all.

Look at the blue truck in my sig, it's running a 6" lift w/ 37's Toyo's. No rubbing, clearance issues, ect. IMHO 35's will look ugly under a 6" lift, way to much wheel well gap.

Well, this is always an easy answer; Bully Dog, especially with low-end fueling enabled. This will give all the smoke you need with that stock turbo. I hear good things about the Smarty too. Have not run this yet. Believe me, if you want agressive low-end fueling, there is NO substitute for a downloader, period. Perhaps you can stack the Edge on zero for the gauges and get a downloader for the fuel.

"You DONT really want smoke. not if your going for full power. lil bit but not black out.
Today 05:57 PM"

Incorrect. If you want power -and- need to spool a larger turbo(s) you will NEED fuel. This will absolutely make black smoke until things get going. If you have the air, it will clean pretty good. In the diesel, you need the fuel FIRST as it is fuel that makes power/boost and boost that requires fuel. It's not a linear graph. Perhaps this could be stated better??

Yes, you will be so much happier with 37's.. And unruly is running 40's on a stock rim with a 6" lift!!

Ditch the juice and get the smarty... I haven't run a juice but the smarty is so fricking unreal... I had the BD Crazy larry on my 05 with a 6" lift and 37's and I could black out half a small town!!!

Here is a pic of my 05

Here is one without the shell..

Big red.. No I sold it... My trucks are all work well and some play!!! But if you think about it I was running 33's before the lift then I put 6" of lift and 37"s well with 4" difference in tires and another 6" of lift it was heck to get into 10-15 times a day and with bad knees it hurt!! Plus I have a daughter and getting her in the back and buckled up was a nightmare.... Did look darned good though!!!!! I got a ton of compliments on it..
