i've decided to take my wheel/tire set-up in a different direction. i'm running 33" tires (275/60/20) on my truck now, with a 20" rim. they fit no problem, no rubbing, etc.

now, i want to go with a smaller wheel/bigger tire setup....

so.....

just ordered nitto terra grapplers for new 18x8.5/25mm aftermarket rims. the size of the tire is 325/60/18 (32.99").

i put on a 2.5" leveling kit to give the width of the new tire more clearance.

does anyone have a similar set up or know if they will fit??

i found that some of the guys in here have 4x4's with the same tire on it and the 2.5" lift and they have no rubbing, etc. but haven't seen anyone with a 4x2.

any help would be great! thanks.

 

did i stump the crew?

i put a stop on delivery of the terra graps.... i just don't think they'll fit.

i think i'll wait on the 285/65/18 BFG AT TA KO's.........

 

I'm talking to myself here.... crazy.... but if any of you are interested the Terra Grappler All Terrain 325/60/18 will fit under a 4x2 with a 2.5" leveling kit.

Discount Tire talked me into trying it "just to see" after I had already bagged the idea. They put the right front on and it looked absolutely killer. Needless to say, they're all on!!

I'll post pix soon.

BTW: They are wrapped around a 18x8.5 25mm offset MB Offroad Gunner 6. Perfect offset.

 

I have the same wheels and tires but have a 4x4. I love them. Makes the truck LOOK like a truck now.

 

Thats great! I really didn't think they would fit.

 

Here's the pix.....

Looks good!

 

I can't tell from the pic, is your truck level now or does it still sit a little lower in the front? I want to do the same thing with my truck(2x4) but wasn't certain if the daystar completely levels out the 2x4's. I know on the 4x4 the front still sits about a 1/2 inch lower in the front.

By the way, your truck looks great!

 

i actually have a performance accessories leveling kit. 2.5".

it sits about as level as i can tell. i personally like the backend up just a tad higher, like on the 4x4s. i may consider getting ford factory rear spacers and put 'em in. i'll need the longer U's as well.

thanks for the comp!

 

gotnoboundary. I am looking for some new tires to put on my truck. These are definitely and option but i ma putting them on the stock 18" rim. How are yours wearing? Treadlife etc?

 

i've only had them on for about 2 weeks now. they still have their **** on. the only thing i've notices with the graps is that when i hit about 65MPH i get a little wiggle in the steering wheel. when i go over or under no wiggle.

that's what you'll get with beefy tread i think.

i wouldn't slap 325's on your stock rim though. i've heard the wiggle gets REAL bad and they'll wear bad too.
