10" Wheels w/ 2" leveling kit

I will be adding a 2" leveling kit to my 2006 XLT 4x4. I Like the look of the Eagle Alloy 064's but they only come in 18x10. Is that rim gonna be to wide if I run a 325/60x18 tire? I don't mind having to trim a little if it's only plastic inside the wheel well.

Yeah I think that is going to be a bit too wide. PawPaw was able to fit 35x12.50's on his leveled 4x4 but needed to use 8'' wide rims with 5'' bs.

Those tires are about 13'' wide...what is the bs on the rims?

That tire being a 33x13x18 should fit on that 10" wheel OK but I would look for a 5 1/2 or 6" BS.

Yeah, the tire will fit the wheel fine. THe problem is that wheel has 4.5 inches of backspacing which means it will stick out 3.5 inches farther than the oem wheels. Don't as me why they don't make it with 5.5 or 6 inches of bs.

Check my gallery. My wheels have 4 1/2" of backspacing and see how much they stick out past the wheel wells. Granted they are 20" rims, but my overall diameter is 32" and my width is 12.2". I have a minimal amount of rubbing at full crank and in reverse only.
