Leveling Kit and Bigger Tires....

Installed Hell bent steel 2" Leveling kit and Got my tires put, they are nitto trail grapplers in a 295/70/18. They fit great no rubbing or trimming, Ive tried like hell to make them rub and still haven't. Only about half an inch away from the UCA but i dont see it being a problem. here are some pics

Looks good! I have the same size but Terra Grapplers. The 295/70-18 is a perfect size tire I don't know why nobody else makes that size except Nitto?

My comment was about other tire makers making the size 295/70-18, I haven't seen anyone but nitto make that size.... I have seen some trucks running that size, that's where I got the idea
