Re: 38x15.5x18 tires
Six inches of lift, and even then you might get slight rubbing in extreme situations. If you do a search for tires you will get loads of information.

Re: 38x15.5x18 tires
For what it's worth, I'm running 38" x 13.50" Toyo M/Ts on 18" rims -- with a 4" Rancho lift... no problems. Here's some photos for reference...

I agree with Screeper though, the 38" x 15.50" is not happenin' unless you get that H2 of yours off the ground some.
Cheers!

Re: 38x15.5x18 tires
You must get a lift to run those tires. I don't think the 4" is high enough if you're going to wheel the truck on anything more than a dirt road. We have a 6" lift and still get rubbing when offroad. Most noticably on the front wheel wells where we've had to trim much of the fender lining away.
