What's up fellas, been on this forum before with my last 2 trucks but I've been out of the game for a minute. I recently Bought a 2012 fx4 with the 5.0 from my dad after he got bored. I'm about to pull the trigger on a leveling kit and some 35's, so my question is if anybody has 35x1250 mud grapplers on the stock fx4 18's? I see a lot of you running the 295's in the trail grapplers, and I'm not completely opposed to that. I had both on my 02 and I preferred the mud graps. Any info, good or bad is much appreciated and pictures are always welcome!

 

I would not recommend putting such a wide tire on the factory 18" wheels. The 17 and 18's are only 7.5" wide and a 12.50 tire is gonna be too wide for a wheel that skinny, it will seriously bulge out on the sides and likely rub. Either get wider aftermarket wheels or run less tire.

 

I know it isn't ideal, but the 12.50 on stock wheels is only temporary. I'll only be running them until tax season when I can pony up for some 18x9 or 18x10 Moto metals. I decided I'll just stay down to a 33x12.50, which doesn't change a lot of my rubbing from width but I'm sure it's gonna help a lot to avoid some of it.
