89-99 probably 33s 99-07 sit a lot lower so 32s then 08 and up they got a lil taller buddy of mine has an 08 z71 with a levelin kit he jammed 35s under it but it rubs on the wind guard under the bumper when turned all the way.
 It also has a lot to do with tire width and if you have aftermarket rims the offset of the rim (how much the rim makes the tire stick out) I have a 95 z71 with 3" body lift 2" in the rear and 3" in the front once upon a time I had 38.5x14.5 tsl thornbirds(looked similar to super swampers) but I have bout a 3" offset on my rims so it only rubbed when I turned all the way

Well charles I have the 37's and I have the leveling kit. I went out to put them on and my good floor jack is gone. I would be able to tell you for sure. Anybody have a floor jack or better yet a lift I can come over and use?

Go with 33's. I have a dodge mega cab 6 in lift with 37's. Biggest mistake I should have stayed with 35's. It looks great but rubs real bad in the front. That rubbin gets real annoying

Do u have a factory bumper? If so u need to get rid of it or do some trimin. I didnt believe it when he told me, but i saw a 2010 2500 with a 2" leveling kit clearing a set of 37x13.5x20 toyo mt. he had a ranch hand bumper.

Charles, with a leveling kit it will change the suspension geometry and bring the axle back towards the cab and it will rub the back of the fenderwells. With 37's you need the long arm leveling kit, which will put the axle back in the right position.

With any lift/leveling kit, it changes the geometry from what it was designed at. Im not gonna argue with you, but you are wrong with having to have a long arm kit. I had an 06 2500 with an 8" lift and used my factory radius arms. Now with the guys tck that had a 2" spacer "aka" leveling kit. He had factory radius arms, ranchhand bumper and was NOT rubbing. I thought it would rub too, but it didnt.
