What do you guys think

I just went to discount tires and priced out these wheels, they are boss 304, 18x8 with a 6" backspace.http://www.aewheel.com/boss/wheels_detail.cfm?id=112

What do you guys think about putting terra grapplers or x terrains. The guy at discount tire said if i am looking for the tires to not stick out so far then this is a good wheel. 35's will fit an 18x8 wheel right? Is this a good idea?

From my research, that wheel should work well, shouldn't stick out. I believe you can squeeze a Terra Grappler 325/65R18 which is a 35x13 tire. I wonder if that combo would work with a Rancho 4" lift. I might even consider it on mine !

Purdy wheels.

Think you may need a 9" wheel, though... check Nittotire.com for the specs.

325/65R18 is recomended for a 9"+ rim, but it is possible to use it on an 8". I have seen it done on a stock 7.5".

I like the wheels!

The guy at discount tire said it would be ok. He said it will be lined up just right. No bulge outside of the rim.
