That's not a great idea. The 325/65-18 is basically a 35x13.00 tire, which is too wide for the stock 7.5 inch wheels. BFG's 305/65-18 is basically a 34x12.50 tire and would be a much better fit. Even these are pushing the limit for the OEM wheels.

I have the 305/65/18's on the stock rims and I don't think there is room to go any wider.

FishHunt17- I have a 2011 Fx4 S.Crew with 2 1/2 inch leveling kit and a 1.5" Add a leaf in the rear and I am running 305/65/r18 BFG A/T's. When I am half-full turn the tires are catching the stock wheel lip moulding. Other than that, I have to other issues. My 2008 F-150 with the same setup never hit anywhere.

That's unusual because you should have more clearance on the '11 then the '08 in the wheelwell's.

PAWPAW- I thought that too until I seen it with my own two eyes. They are making these trucks too much like cars anymore! LOL.

That's odd. I have the exact same tires with no rub without the leveling kit and no rub with the leveling kit. I also thought the 2009+ f150's had .5" more space than previous years. A 1.5" leveling kit should get you the same result as 2" leveling kit on a pre-2009 F150. I'm basing this on the 2 trucks I've owned so I could be wrong about the second part but I know I had no issues with the same tires

Hmmm? that is weird. Im almost certain the wheel wells are bigger.
Give us a pick of what you are talking about. Im trying to get what a
"stock wheel lip molding" is? Or maybe ive never called it that.
