Tire wear question for 18" Nittos on stock rims

Gonna start a new thread in the hopes that someone has some experience to share. Looking at putting 325/60/18 Nitto Terra Grapplers on stock 7.5" FX4 rims. I know it's been done, I just wanted to know how it worked out long term with tire wear, rubbing, etc.

Here's the previous thread https://www.f150online.com/forums/sh...5&page=2&pp=15

cheers

Good question. And not just Nito's. 325/60-18 has become a common size. I'm curious as to how the 325mm wide tires are wearing on the OEM 18x7.5 wheels.

Ya... I have REALLY been thinking about doing this. Tire wear & the $$$ is holding me back. I do not wanna spend all that cash on tires, and they be worn in 10,000 miles!

If anyone has pics of a 325/60-18 mounted on their truck that would help out too.

I read a thread that mentioned that their tires were wearing from the center a little faster than the edges also that the edges did not seem to contact very well(Visual??) I think it depends on how much pressure you run on them as well.
