2004 FX4 W/ 33's on stock 18's?

I have a 2004 FX4 w/ the stock 18's and I'm putting a 2 1/2" leveling kit on it. I want to run 33's. I know Toyo makes the m/t in a 33x12.50r18 but isn't available to me. They also have a 325/60r18 a/t. Which technically I guess is only 1/2" wider. Will this work? With no scrubbing?

Thanks,
SilverNCSU

They will fit without rubbing on your stock wheels but they will rub alittle on 9" wide wheels. I have 325-60-18 tires on my 05 and they touch just alittle on Moto Metal 951 wheels. You are good with your combo.

With stock wheels and a leveling kit you can fit the 33" tires easily.

From what I have read. 325/60-18 on stock wheels will rub on the control arms due to width, but only on full turns. But most don't seem to mind.

Yes they will rub it you are running 325. I just got a set of procomp xterrains (325/60R18\33/13.5) and they rubbed the upper ball joint. I have a daystar 2.5" leveling kit on mine (2004 Lariat SuperCrew 4x4). 33's sit fine on it but the width is what you have to consider. the tires will fit on my factory 18s, the the width is the problem. Unless you lift more. I just went ahead and bought a set of american racing wheels with the correct backspacing and lug pattern and they fit like a glove on my truck.

i can tell you that the 33" toyo mt on stock fx4 18's will not rub at all. i have a 2.5" leveling kit. have had them on for 8000 miles, no rubbing whatsoever. see the gallery if you want pics- in the sig.
