hi all, i have some questions. i am thinking about purchaseing 35x12.50R17LT mickey thompsons baja claws. on moto metel 17x9 rims with -12 offsett and backspace 4.53inch.

I currently have 3inch level kit in front end and 3inch block kit on back should i go with this set up or go for the 33x12.50 size baja claw?? any and all info will be much appreciated thank you guys. will the 35 rub or even fit. i have 2005 xlt 5.4 4x4

 

My rims are 4.75" backspacing, nearly 1/4" further IN the wheel well compared to the MMs you are talking about, and my 35s rub... Trust me on this, pick a rim with at least 5" backspacing, or get a 6" lift...

 

how bout this rim mickey thompson makes it.. 17x9 backspace= 5-1/2 offset= +12

you think they would fitt?? i also have a 3inch level kit on the front and block kit on back and its a 4x4

 

Sorry to bring up a dead thread, but what are you rubbing?


I see people with leveled trucks running 35s on stock wheels and some rubbing the UCA, but what about leveled trucks with aftermarket wheels and not a whole lot of BS. I don't care if the tire sticks past the fender, but does that mean a 35 won't fit leveled because the wide tire/wheel will hit the fender when turning? Any incite here guys? I know not in the tire and wheel section, but worth a shot.
