I have a 2005 2wd xlt sc. If I install a 2" level kit on my truck can I fit 33 x 12.50 x 17LT Nitto Mud Grapplers on it or will they rub.

 

On your oem wheels you can if i am not mistaken.

 

they might fit without the leveling kit, but i don't know for sure. they will be packed in there pretty tight and it will look pretty silly. i would use a level kit if you want 33's.

 

I agree.

 

Yeah, you can fit them with a leveling kit using the OEM wheels.

 

Okay not highjacking since this is a ask wandell a question thread :P haha

Anyway I am looking at the American Racing Thug with some terra grap 325/60/R18. These are the two sizes of the wheels. What is the difference going to be?

Offset/Backside
-12/ 4 1/2
0/5
Thanks

 

Is the wheel width the same on both? Seems strange to offer the same wheel with a choice of 4.5 and 5 inches of backspacing.

 

3991-8936 18x9 -12 4 1/2 6-135 03-on Ford Truck/SUV
3991-8936A 18x9 0 5 6-135 03-on Ford Truck/SUV

both are 18X9

 

I'd go with the one's with 5 inches of backspacing. They will stick out 2 inches farther than your oem wheels. The 18x9's with 4.5 inches of backspacing will stick out 2.5 inches farther than your oem wheels.

 

those rims are AWESOME. a guy in my neighborhood has a big black f250 on 37" mud grapplers using 20" Thugs and it looks so good. i think they will look amazing on your dark gray truck.

 

Thanks to both of you. I will get pictures up as soon as i get them...the local dealer said that those rims are on backorder til october! I can find them online but I still like to support the locals...
