You're replacing a 35 inch diameter tire with a 37 inch diameter tire. Measure the distance from the possible contact points of the 35 inch tire and make sure you have enough room when adding the additional inch all the way around. If you check the net there is a tire conversion calculator where you can plug in the two different sizes and it will convert all the measurements to inches. Remember, you have already lifted the vehicle 6 inches. Standard tires for the vehicle have a height of about 30 inches. You increased that to 35 inches with your current set, and want to add another two. Keep in mind with the new tires you will probably raise the center of gravity on the vehicle by another inch from it's current level.
