Default Tires Fitting

Looking to get some black XD revolvers with a set of 325/65r18's which according to Nittos website are 35" tires. I have heard that these will rub even with a 2" leveling kit which i have on my truck already. The rims have a -12mm offset so they will stick out a little and give me a little more turning clearance. Anyone running this set up or something similar and not rubbing? Thanks

they will rub, not running straight but while turning. i run 33/15.5/16's with a level kit and mine rubbed like hell. my fix was to weld a 3/4 nut to the axle stop on each side.this makes my lock to lock (turning radius) less but keeps the tires away from the fenders. really not noticeable unless your are trying to park in a tight situation. if i ever go back to 12.5's all it will take to remedy the nuts is a cut off wheel and a beer.

I am running 35s with a 2 inch leveling kit. The never rub during normal driving or when flipping a U. I have had them rub when hitting an incline at an angle with the wheel turned all the way.Tires Fitting-uploadfromtaptalk1360773858651.jpg
