I don't think you're going to even notice the extra 2 inches of sidewall being that they are allready 37's. I'd be more concerned if you were dealing with 33's. That being said.. go for the 20's, everyone wants to be "rollin' on dubs".
Oh yeah, modded one less side rail link out of my chains yesterday, aparantly pickups can rip apart 5/16 semi truck chains when chewing through a few feet of snow.

Picked up a set of 33's and I sure hope I can make them fit. Tossing and turning which rims I want to replace the tires on. I dont really need 2 sets of mudders but It always nice to have a spare set... but than the quiet radial all terrains are also nice to have around and having 3 sets on rims is just pointless.

I'm trying to find a used roof basket to mount a few more lights on, and a spot for my highlift to clean up the interior. Just picked up a clamp-hitch to quickly hook up straps. Looks like I need to change the u-joints tomarrow. I've gained this horrible driveline vibration.

Took a Stihl cutting saw and chopped up the truck tonite. Nice to have found a surprise 3/4 tank of fuel.
