looks good. I think im gonna stay away from the level kit for a while, not sure if i want to deal with potential TC issues. plus i like the gas mileage im getting.

thanks for the pic

The +35 tucks in further, and will clear 33x12.5's with NO spacer, lift, or trimming.

With the +35mm, the tire is close to the upper control arm, but it doesn't rub at all. I wouldn't have believed that 33's would fit with 0 rubbing with the +35 mm offset without seeing it...but they work. A buddy of mine has 20" XD Hoss wheels with a +30mm offset and 33" Toyo MT's on a 2011 Fx4, and his clears just fine too.
The wheels I originally wanted were only available in a 0 offset, or +18...but they wouldn't clear the 33's without the front lift. I wanted to stay away from lifting the front at all because I HATE the dog scratching its @ss look, and I will be towing a lot with this truck...so a front lift wasn't an option.
Sounds like +35 is the way to go for me. I dont want to level it and dont wnat to trim the valence. thanks for the insight.

They cleare with 33x12.5x20 (305/55/20) and a 2" level. No rubbing and come close to the control arms. Check out Darren's pictures as he has some better ones than me for clearance.

so to recap...+18 will look better IMO but you will need either bilstein 5100s or a 2" leveling kit (about $60 + alignment)
+35 will work on stock suspension but stick out a little further

lugs are 6x135
truck looks great with that setup. Dont you have it backwards, the +18 will stick out more? Im planning on keeping the sus. stock for now. Did the tires come mounted/balanced from rimezoneonline?

thanks

won't be for a while, probably when these tires wear out. but if i do stick with monster i'll do the +18 and 33" trail grapplers most likely. will be doing a leveling kit and most likely bags in the rear so i won't sag when towing.

+18 will stick out more than +35.
