Tires on 22inch KMC's

Does anyone know if I will need to put a lift on my truck if I get some 22inch KMC wheels? I want to put some AT's on it, and have the standard leveling kit already. Think its 2.5 .....Someone let me know??? I think my truck will look great, also will it lift my truck 4 inches? Tires, thinking nitto terra AT or Toyo open country AT's >>>>>>>>>>

We need the specs on the wheel, back spacing, offset, width

What do you mean will it lift your truck 4"?

for how much information you gave us you gave us nooo details

wheels will need to have about 4 1/2" of backspacing. i think mine are 4 5/8's, most lift kits tell you there recommendation so choose ur lift then choose ur wheels.

if you do a 4 or 6" kit you can fit 35's.

if you decide on 8" you can fit 37's (check out highon22's truck) but you will need to re-gear to 4.88's in your diffs.

More infor

Ok Sorry, about the lack of information. Other then what the guy I bought it from said about having the leveling kit put on I dont want to put a lift on this truck. From what Iv been told there is positive offset with the factory 18" ford rims. I want the KMC monsters in 22in and actually wanted to put some pretty knobby tires but dont think this will happen without a lift.???

The other question, about raising the truck when I put bigger wheels on it was strictly for the fact I may not have the height on my garage door.

As you can tell I know little about automotive in General, but I want to.
