Tire/rim size fitment check...(Wandell?)

I am looking at the bfg AT's 305/65r18's and am considering the Procomp 107's in 18x9 with the 5" backspacing.

I have a 2006 FX4 with a daystar 2.5 leveling kit in front.

Will this work? How far will it stick out (If I am correct .5" past stock?). Will I have any rubbing issues?


Thanks!

JMc

I think they will fit, but it will be tight. Several people have fit 325/60-18's on wheels with those specs. The 305/65-18 BFG's are about an inch taller, but 1/2 inch narrower than the 325/60-18's. Also, that wheel will stick out about 2 inches farther than the OEM 7.5 inch wheels with 5.5 inches of backspacing. I'd try to find a 9 inch wide wheel with a little more backspacing, like 5.5 or 6 inches.

Moto Metals make the 951 in 2 versions. One has 4.5" and one has 6.1". They may make some of their other wheels with different offsets as well but i only know about the 951's.
