Help, Mud Terrains on 18" rims?

Hello All, This is my first post.

I have a 2005 SCrew FX4 with 18" rims and OEM tires (275/65 R18 ). I will be getting a 2.5" leveling kit installed shortly and need to get some (33/12.5 like) Mud tires. I want to get BFG Muds but I cant seem to find a size that will fit on 18" rims. I really don't want to replace the stock rims if I dont have to. Am I missing something? What Muds will fit and minimize rubs?

Thanks for your help in advance....

A bunch of companies make a 35x12.5 18" mud tire...check mickey thompson, nitto, pro comp, and a bunch of others. I'm sure others will chime in. Good luck!!

Right. WIth a leveling kit and OEM 18x7.5 inch wheels, you can fit up to a 35x12.50-18 (with some minor rubbing). Several companies make this size including BFG, Pro Comp, Nitto and Toyo. I'd suggest the BFG MT KM's or Toyo MT's. Of course you can also fit a smaller size like a 33x12.50-18 or the BFG MT KM in 285/65-18 (33x11.50).

I am in the same boat, there are not many options for the 18" rims. BFG Ko in a 305 65 18 is what I will use if I keep my 18s. I feel there are many more options with 17's and less $$$$, So I am looking for OEM Fx4 or Lariat 17's.
