I have a 2004 Fx4 with a leveling kit with stock 18" wheels. Will 35s fit if so what size should I get? thanks

What size leveling kit? I know with a 2.5" kit you can fit 35" tires if you stay near factory width.

From everything I've seen the 2.5" leveled FX4's will clear 35's.

Be careful of tires with huge sidelugs or any amount of sidewall tread as it will be very very close or rubbing the UCA.

you will also need to watch the tire width. a 285 should have not problem but a 305 or bigger it will be close on stockers.

You can fit a 35x12.50-18 (305/70-18) using the oem wheels, but they will rub the control arms slightly at full steering lock.
