Default Need tire and wheel size help

I know these tire size questions have been beat to death, but........Here it go's. I have a 06' F250 PS 4X4 4 DR. It has a 2.5" level kit in front and 1" block in back, I currently am running my stock 18x7 rims with 295/70/18 (~34.5"tall) nitto trail grapplers. I am going to need new tires soon and was wanting to get after market rims when I get my new tires. I was thinking about 18x9 wheel and something in a 35x12.50/18 but in know nothing about back spacing. Is this a good combo for the added lift on my truck? I also don't want the tires sticking way out of the fenders. Thanks in advance.

So those would be a half inch taller and about an inch wider than what you have, not much of a change.

You should be alright with those just ask about + offset because your tire crown is going to sit diffrent than on a 18x7 rim... Just ask ur tire place they should hook you up and make sure you dont get wheel rub and that your happy with where your tire sits.. Good luck
