Thanks! My rims are only 8.5" wide. I'm sure yours will look much wider if you are putting them on wider rims.

Looks Nice!!! I have 2010 F250 4x4 FX4 w/ snow plow pkg and just bought Moto Metal 959 wheels with 295/70 R18's Nitto Trail Grapplers which should be 34's. My truck is stock ride height and I have a rub at full lock on the front wheel well liners towards bottom. Not sure how guys are fitting 35's on stock trucks w/o rubbing issues??!! Should I trim the wheel well liners? I'm afraid to buy level kit because truck already appears to sit level and also I don't have much clearance to fit in my garage.

The stock wheels have a much higher offset than aftermarket wheels, hence the fact that aftermarket wheels tend to stick out. I would be willing to bet that your Moto Metal wheels are at least 9" wide with 4.5" backspacing. The stock rims are only 8.5" wide with 5.5" backspacing. that means you have two extra inches of tire and wheel sticking out past the wheel mounting surface. All that extra tire sticking out makes them rub on the fenders and bumpers.

Oh, and I am running 37x13.5x20's on the stock rims, and they do rub a little on the radius arms at full lock.
