Default Hummer h3 37in tires

Hey guys I currently have a rough country 2.5in leveling kit on my 09' h3 and I was looking to fit 37in tires on it, I have had 3 sets of 35s on it and they have been great I just want a little more. I know I won't be able to go as fast and stuff but do you guys think 37's would fit if I upgraded to this "3in" lift. It's the wulf 3in kit.
let me know thanks

Exclamation Hummer h3 lift / tires

Hi everyone, I'm really wanting to run 37in tires on my 09' H3, I don't really want to do a body lift because I think they just look very "interesting" so I was looking at the wolf 3in lift kit, linked here (
Amazon Amazon
). In the reviews of this lift there is a picture of a guy who just installed his and it looks like he might have 37in tires on his rig do people here think these are 37s? Or does anyone think this lift would work out to run 37in tires? Or does anyone know who's rig this is? Would love some help thanks guys.

The wulf thing is NOT a lift kit. It is a wallet cabbage drainer. Just like your rough country "leveling kit" is NOT a lift kit. You can adjust the factory Torsion Bars to the max of 23.5" fender lip to hub center, then the front is DONE. Doesn't matter what magic voodoo snake oil kit you purchase, the front ain't going to get any higher than 23.5" and stay together.

Keep a look out for turtles wanting to pass on the highway after those 37s. Won't have to worry about snails, you'll never catch up to any.

I've seen you respond to other people, maybe tone it down a little. The off-road community is a fun and inviting place not a place where people get yelled at through forums. But thank you for the information.

From a long time member perspective it does get frustration when new owners do not do their research and post up these torsion key "leveling kits". I've been part of various GM forums for the past 16 years. Torsion key lifts and questions have plagued every one of them. I remember one forum they had this thing that when you signed up you had a screen in bold with a disclaimer about not asking about what size tires will fit and which torsion key lift to get. They had a sticky thread at the top of the forum with a breakdown of each lift kit available and what tire size will fit with stock wheels etc. GM designed the H3 to be able to install a 1" body lift. The new Colorado ZR2 its a gm performance dealer kit you can order as well. Ive had a bodylift installed on almost all of my H3s and with the front bumper spacer installed you cannot tell it has one. The frame rails from the factory are tucked up inside the body on the side so unlike other model trucks when you do the lift you do not see a ton of frame rail.

Four of our H3s recently had 37s on them. We are sold some of our fleet but this is the breakdown:

2008 Alpha auto with 5.3 v8 4.10 gears 1.25" body lift H3x 18" wheels and 37s (wifes daily driver) SOLD with 189,000 miles
2006 H3 with 6.0 v8 6L90 transmission 4.56 gears 1.25" bodylift H3x 18" wheels and 37s (company test mule) 167,000 miles
2009 H3T 3.7L auto with 4.56 gears 1.25" bodylift H3x 18" wheels and 37s (daily driver) 190,000 miles SOLD
2007 H3 3.5L auto with 4.56 gears 1.25" bodylift 16" 7 spoke wheels and 37" irok tires. (company test mule but current daily driver till new truck arrives) 163,000 miles

We have lots of hills on my 2 hr round trip daily commute and the 3.5L on 37s has no problem doing 75mph with the iroks nd which are relatively light and narrow

That makes a lot of since actually thank you for being welcoming about the topic, now it makes since not to ask those things if they have been asked so much, I really just wanted to ask about that particular kit but it seems there is nothing special about it. that list of trucks is really what I was looking for thank you!
