I have a stock suspension and ride height. I have a friend with H1 hummer rims and tires. They are 37x12.5x16.5 e range. What will I have to do to run these? Leveling kit? Lift? Not even bother?

you will also need spacers to push the wheel out far enough so it will not rub the control arms. and i would venture to guess with the backspacing these wheels already have if you keep them closer to the inside you could get away with a 4" lift with the 37's

6-7" lift, trim the fenders, and either spacers or cut out the old centers and weld new ones farther back. they are very heavy too. The other thing is actual beadlocks arent road legal last i heard.

H1s are steel wheels anyways i run the H2s with 315 70 17s with the bars leveled and the inner fenders trimed with no problems.I believe the 315s are = to 33s thats the best your gonna getunless you do a lift.

A 315 70 17 is much closer to a 35 than 33 scott. Think last time i looked at a 315 70 17 bfg all terrain it was like 34.5" tall new.
