Looking for tires that fit
Looking for tires that fit
Hey guys,
I apologize if this is a repeated subject. I've done a lot of hunting, but cant find exactly what Im looking for. I recently installed Bilstein 5100s all the way around my 08 FX4.
I placed the fronts at the 2" setting. Now, I'm looking for the largest tire I can run on my stock 18" wheels without having any rubbing or needing to trim. I got some pocket style fender flares, so I would like something wide enough to fill em up.
From what I've read, it sounds like the 295/70s would be a safe option, but I also don't want to leave any meat out there on the table.
Any suggestions or pics would be greatly appreciated.

Darren that does look good. Exactly what I'm looking for. Have you experienced any rubbing, extreme road noise or dramatic loss of MPG? Just cautious since the majority of my driving is highway. Thanks for the input
My size tires on my truck ended up rubbing with 2" of level but my Rancho springs are very flex-allowing possibly being the fault. They are very calm for a mud terrain tire, noise is not an issue at all. I probably lost 1mpg over my old 33" Toyo M/Ts, which dropped me originally 1mpg due to weight & drag.
