Can you run 38" tires on a chevy 2500 with a 6" suspension lift without trimming anything? Any help would be great!!
 
I cant answer your exact question, but I will give it a shot. Its probably like my suburban I have a 4in lift and 315x75x16 (35in tires) I get a little rub in the back of the front fender at full stuff and turn. Its suggested by most lift companys to run a 6in lift with 35 tires but I think it looks to tall on 35's. If your not doing any real wheeling and just driving it around you will probably get away with 38x12.5 tires but if your goin to wheel it you'll probably have to at least trim the front to make it work. Hell its just sheet metal trim it and be done with it. pic attached

Easy answer....NO. To get the correct clearance, you'll need quite a bit of trimming, cut out fender flares, or a 2-3 in body lift. General rule, last number in your tire size correlates to the lift you'll need!
 
Like the previous post says...NO. Here is a shot of my 2008 with 35's and a 6" lift. I rub with 35's.
