I have a rearend narrowed to 37 inches axle flange to axle flange ,I need to find out what wheels and tires to run on a luv to make it look good .Wheel size and offset, and tire size would be very helpful , thanks for any help you have..

37" seems to be too narrow for a stock frame. The measurement from the center of the leaf spring to leaf spring is 38.25" (stock). Did you back-half the rear?

that sounds close to my rear measurments and my frame rails are 28" outside to outside. I run 31-18.5 tires but i have a step side

I really dont want to rob the post but TJ, how did you fit 31X18.5 with haveing your frame rails at 28"? I also run 31X18.5's and my frame rails are set at 21" And I am close to rubbing them. Also my 9 Inch is 31" Flange to flange.

yes,my back rails are narrowed to 24 inches , I'm looking for tire and wheel to fill the space , I would like to have about 1.5 inches of clearance on the bed sides. Oh, I am using a fleetside bed

my wheels are 15'' with 4.5'' back space. tires are 32x14.5 slicks / fleetside..frame rails at 24''

Luvrv8 i my have to go measure my frame to make sure that it is 28",i only have1/4 to 3/8" tire clearance to the frame and i found a set of finders that had more flare than the ones that came on the truck. Other wise i would be running 31-16.5s. Pee Roy posted some pic's of a meet here in Idaho last month and you can see how the tires fit the finders.
