You can fit 37's with a TeraFlex 4" suspension lift. 35's and a 3" are a good mix. Do you have a 2dr or a 4dr?

just make sure you have wide tires and spacers at that height. you dont want to roll your jeep making a corner

I first had the 4" teraflex with 37x1350 tires mounted on 16x10 rims with 5" back spacing and I would rub on the stock front bumper if I had less back spacing it probably wouldn't have rubbed now I have the Teraflex 6" long arm kit and an AEV front bumper and the same tires and don't rub at all but with 35" tires you should be fine with the 4" lift.

Here is one that was in the Tires for Sale section a while back.
6" lift on 35's - said he was going to taller tires because of the look.

As the others have said, 6" is overkill for 35's. But hey, it's your rig. If you're happy with that look, go for it...
