my buddy has the same truck lifted 6'' on 35's and he has plenty of clearance. in my opinion take the 4'' body lift off, they look awful with that much space between the frame and body. if you want something to look good, with spending just a tad bit more money, do a 8'' lift on 37's

If you put 34s on a 10" lift your street queen will be one ugly bitch. Ditch the 4" and if you need a body lift for whatever reason, 2" should be the most you should use.
Not sure what your goal is but tires make the truck, not the lift. Too high a lift for your tires, you have one silly looking bucket. You have 37" mud or all terrain tires, you fucked yourself again. Another stupid looking truck.
Make your ride beefy, not some tall, slinky bitch.
Your problem with this is all the beefy tires are expensive as **** and your dodge is going to go through tires like nothing, unless you spit out a few more bills for the few badass tires that are radial..
For street queens, I personally like Nittos with the bigger rims.
Me, I rock a wrangler with a 12" lift and 39" boggers on satin 15" steelies. That is one sexy bitch.
EDIT, My 97 1500 has a 3" lift and 35s with no rubs. Just to give you a size comparison.
