Red face 325/60-18's on 18x10 m/t classic ll's

i have an 06 f150 fx4 with the 2.5" autospring leveling kit. was wondering if the mickey thompson baja mtz tire in 325/60-18(33x13.50-18) on the m/t classic ll's in (18x10 6" backspace )would fit with no issues or rubbing. and if anyone has this setup or simular and could tell me if they are rubbing. backwoods tire shop said would rub without looking at truck or research of tires and rims. i think they would be okay. please give me input. thanks.

i believe they would rub, know of several people who have 16x10's with 33x11.50's and they had to trim some because of rubbing....that would be a sweet looking setup though if you CAN fit it....i think you would need a rim with more like 4.5'' backspacing...

What is the backspacing on those. I would guess they would probably rub. I've seen several 04-06 F-150 4x4's with 2.5 inch leveling kits run 325/60-18's on 18x9 inch wheels (with 5 and 5.5 inches of backspacing) without any problems. I'd suggest looking for a 9 inch wide wheel like that.

99% of the time they DON'T rub.....but every once in a while, when backing up, they rub a little bit. I only have the 2" leveling kit so i would guess a 2.5" would give you a small bit more clearence. I say go for it!

What is the backspacing on those Flyinsqurl? It appears to be just about perfect. They don't stick out nearly as much as most 10 inch wide wheels.

6" backspacing. If they stuck out much more i expect they would rub a Lot more. The only part i don't like is the rims being polished aluminum. I'd much rather have chrome....a lot easier to maintain.
