tire size's for supercrew with leveling kit?
 
I have an 04 supercrew lariet 4x4. I have a two inch level on the front and an add a leaf in the rear. I have stock 18 inch rims. I want to go with 17 in aftermarket rims. Anyone know if 35x12.50 17's would fit in my situation. 33's? i see alot of people run metric sizes but for some reason that doesnt interest me. If you have any info or pics that would be great.

35's will work on your stock wheels.. Most likely they will be rubbing if you use the aftermarket wheels..

You should be fine I have a 04 FX4 with 33's on it and no leveling kit. I have no rubbing at all. Just watch the backspacing on your rims. I'm running 18-9's.
You can see them in my gallery if you want to see how much room I have.

my gallery shows mine with 295/70R17's (33 inch) on 17x8 wheels

just got 305/70R17 (34 inch) MTR's mounted on 17x9 Motto Metal 951's some rubbing, done some trimming but need to do more will post pictures later this week looks AWESOME NOW!!

all good info but i am looking to hear if anyone is running specifically 33x12.50 17's( with just a leveling kit/ add a leaf). i am aware of the 5 to 5 1/2 in backset that after market rims need.
all info/pics are appreciated

That is what I was saying, look at my CURRENT gallery that is 17x8 aftermarket wheels with 33x12.50 17's ( same as 295/70R17's) with just a leveling kit.

looks much more meaty now, when I get it cleaned up I will post pictures with wider rims and 34 inch tires.

sorry i meant 35x12.50 17 not 33. i should read over what i type before i submit it.:rolleyes:
ive been doing alot of searching and looking at gallarys. see alot of 33's but no 35's. 2 and 2 would tell me that 35's wont work but i know one of you out there have at least tried it.

here is POWERAGE's ( 18's instead of 17's but same diameter) truck he has 35's with only a leveling kit they will rub but if you don't do off roading and torque the suspension much you can get by with just trimming but it all depends on the rims, stick to 8 inches with positive off sets you should be alright I think the eagle alloy 137's like on my truck in these pictures would work but they weren't flashy enough for me
