well im about to purchase a lift kit as well as some new tirs and rims.......im gonna be putting a 6 inch lift with 36x15.5's on it......my major question is has anyone else done the same set up??? i want to do this but im not sure if the tires will rub on the springs or the bumper.....if it does would wheel spacers fix it or no?

I just want to add some info

The wheels are 20x12 DC-1 with 4.5" backspaceing -50 offset.

You may rub on the front bumper a little when you turn. It's very easy to cut a bigger radius into the edge of it though. I've run 37's on a 6" lift on an '03 SD. You should be just fine.

It should be fine. Be careful if you do need to use spacers. I know I can't work on vehicles at my work that have them due to the chance of a wheel coming off.

You can always pull/adjust your bumper farther out. Take a look at yer bumper mounts. Most are slotted
