After I re-read your post I figured as much. Sorry man didn't mean to burn ya, I just get chapped because there are a few guys on here that just spout off info without and it's obvious they don't have a clue. It just makes it that much more confusing if you're seeking help or accurate info. Some of the crap they post makes you wonder if they even own a truck.

So 325/65/18's fit the stock wheels just fine with a 2 1/2" leveling kit... but they do rub on tight turns. I'll post more later

Will 325/65/18s really fit with a leveling kit for sure?? Thats a 35x13 inch tire....

Id think just the 325/60/18s (33x12) would be a squeeze on stockers with just a leveling kit????

Mine rub like a bish even after trimming a good amount, but Im also on 9"wide. 5" BS wheels, so thats a whole nother ball game.


It seems like your asking mainly about the size, but Im going to throw this out there also....The cheaper price tag on the Nitto TGs sure looks good, heck thats why I got them, but to me the performance of the tire is lacking. Mine run down the road great, and quiet, havent had any problems in that aspect with them, but when it comes to offroading (mud/sand, havent had them in snow yet, but I dont expect much better) I am less than impressed with these tires, and thats even comparing them to the stock Rugged Trails (which also suck).

Granted, they ARE 13 inches wide so they tend to float over things a little more instead of dig down and get traction as compared to a narrower tire, but even when considering that, I want to rip these tires off every time I leave the beaten path.

For the guys running up and down the roads mainly, with some mild offroading they are a nice tire, and I can see where they are coming from since the tire runs great down the road and is still 'decent' offroad.
And Im not sure how you use your truck, but if your someone like me who is off the pavement a heck of a lot more than they are on the pavement, and really likes to get into some stuff and get crazy, you might be fairly dissapointed with these tires. I cant wait till these things wear down so I can justify new, different tires.

F me....I just typed all that out and re-read your last post and it seems like you already got the tires...... I was thinking you were still looking into them.


You can just ignore that last post then.

I'm running 33's on OEM 20's with no leveling kit. I have the 2" autospring in the garage I might put on.
