How BIG with 18's?
 
How big of a tire can I get into the fender without rubbing with an 18 x 9 in wheel. I was thinking of getting the Harley-Haulers. My truck is 4x4 so I want to fill the fender as much as possible!!! I don't want to have a descent sizes rim with alot of fender room. So.........what's the biggest size, what brand might that be, about how much... and has anyone done this and has pics.

Thanks Mike

Mike; I just put a set of BFG All-terrain KO 285/65/18 on my chrome L wheels. I have a '97 4X4 supercab and they look great. No need to trim anything. Good luck. :angel:

My dad just got a set of Nitto Terra Grappler's 285/60 18 (I think) on 18X9's and it looks really, really good. I guess they're the same diameter as say a 265/7017 (the stock size) but a bit wider so fills it up nicely. I just asked him today to send me a digital picture. When I get it I'll post it.

If you saw TRUCKS on TNN a couple weeks ago, he put on some 305/60/18's Nitto Terra Grablers on a White 2002 SuperCrew 4x4 5.4. He also supercharged it and put on a SI/DO Flowmaster exhaust on it. Pretty Cool.
