Just got my tires
Here's pics of my new 325/65/R18 Nitto Terra Grapplers on my stock FX4 rims with only a AS leveling kit:

Did NOT have to trim any of the front valance, but did have to trim 1/2 inch off the very back end of the fender flare and the bottom rear of the fender liner, which was no big deal. The tire, however, is only about 1/8 inch from the upper ball joint. That's way too close. So I may have to get 1/4 inch wheel spacers.

Thanks guys!
...and thanks to Wandell and everyone for their posts in this forum, which helped greatly in making my decision on what would fit on the truck. I'd really like to get a quality suspension lift, but they are so darn expensive.

Nice job, 35's are the way to go I just put on a set my self, as for the upper ball joint spacing, hold off on the wheel spacer for a while, your tire width at that point should never change, I have about 3/8" spacing and have had no rubbing issues(800 miles) witht the upper ball joint.
