Wheels would fit but tires are another matter. Without some lifting or serious trimming they will not fit.

I do not think it is going to clear without some trimming. Never been a fan of bigger body lifts as they create their own problems. You kinda need a proper 4 to 6 inch lift here.

stay away from body lifts!!!!!! they just suck, they require too many mods to properly function and make truck look weird cuz body is so tall.....just put on a 4 in suspension lift and trim a litle fender the 35s will fit, a 6 inc lift will require no trimming but thats getting kinda high.........  
Solid axle chevys can't be beat!
My dream truck: 73-91 chevy 3500 crew cab srw with dana 60/14bolt, 6 inc long travel lift with KING shocks, 37 inc tires and a 24v cummins diesel, nv5600 and np205
