im looking at getting new rims and tires...upgrading to 18 inch rims...and thinking about 295/70/18 nitto terra grapplers... the tire place said the tires will probably rub..is this true? i want to go bigger to take up some space in wheel well.. any opinions? right now im running 285/65/16. Thanks guys.

 

295/70/18 = 34.3x11.6/18

When I got my truck it had 35x12.5R17 Toyo M/T's on it. They fit, mostly. During a sharp turn the sidewall lugs would hit my control arms. Being almost an inch narrower, half inch on the inside, I think you should be OK. If nothing else, get a rim with a different offset so there is no chance of rubbing. Height wise you should be just fine.

 

He's right its all about the offset.

 

cool..im going with the 295's...thanks guys for your input...much appreciated!

 

No problem. Please let us know how it fits when you get it.

 

im not getting them for a few months...but just getting a feel for what you guys thought about the set up. But really appreciate the input RAWilliams...i know i can at least get opinions from you!!!

 

I'm FULL of opinions!

 

You can fit anything you want on it... Just do this...

 

 

thats funny especially cause the tires tread is wore down like they drove it like that for awhile
