Arrow Ordered My 2.5" auto spring NOW WHAT

Okay so I ordered it last night and it should be here in a couple of days. I called up and got a price on nitto dune grapplers 34 1/2 -12.5x17 $171 a tire is that a good price and is this a good tire? I also have asked around and everyone says no but I keep hearing everyone on here saying they'll fit. What do you guys think? I also dont know the stock width of my wheel

Yes, 35 inch tires will work on a stock wheel with a leveling kit. Where you have clearance issues is when you go to an aftermarket wheel with different offsets and backspacing than the stock wheel.

Your stock wheels are 7.5 wide I think.

you can fit 35's on aftermarket rims, backspacing is crucial though. this guy has 35 muds with only a level kit and american racing rims

theres another guy on here running 35 toyo muds on mb rims with an autospring.
look for with close to oem backspace and you should be fine
i wanna be running 35's on the stock fx4 rims this summer, but if i cant swing that, then i'm gonna do a level kit and 3" body and you can run 35's on 10 wide wheels and be fine. i guy has a blue fx4 leveld and bodied and it looks very close in height to a 6 inch lift.

I could be wrong but from what I've read the Dune Grappler is not a good tire. Does horrible on the street, wears really quickly. It was designed for running in sand. Just what I've read. The Terra Grappler is a much better choice IMO.
