Default Will They Fit?

I need some help from the 2nd Gen guys. I just got done doing my leveling kit on my 97 and Im ording my rims and tires but before I do I'd like to make sure they fit.

I'm getting RBP 94 wheels (5" BS and -12mm offset) and Toyo Open Country ATs 285/75R18(35x11.50R18) will those fit without any rubbing?

With a 2" leveling kit my 33's will rub but this is with a 17x10 with neutral offset and 33x12.50's.

I have a 2inch leveling kit on my 96 2500 with 315/75/16s and the only time they rub is on the frame when i turn sharp!

Thanks guys for the replies! I'm thinking I should be fine but thought I'd check first.

285/75/18's aren't a 35" tire, they're a 33" tire, so you should be just fine, you could probably go even bigger like a 305 or 315 and still be ok

Really? I was just going with what Toyo had them listed as. According to them 285/75R18 is 34.8".. But now that I think of it, that's the almost the same size as I have now (285/75R16). Can a bigger rim actually change the size that much?

It is a bigger tire, they still have the same ratio's as your 16" tires, but since it is on an 18" wheel that would make them about 35", you just have to factor in the extra 2" of wheel that you are running.
