Trxus M/t's....Will they Fit?

I am considering ordering a set of 33x12.50x18 Trxus m/t's for my 04 fx4 with a truxx 3in leveling kit. Will they fit on my stock 18in wheels??? I do not want to change to aftermarket wheels. I would appreciate any information or suggestions. Thanks guys!!!!

P.S. Wow u guys are sharp!!!!

yep, they will fit great! they may tell you they are a little wide for a 7.5'' wide rim, but people do it all the time and never have any probelms at all....

welcome to the site.

you wouldnt need spacers with that size, and you dont want to use them either. if you aren't set on that tire I would consider others, wouldnt get a lot of tread life out of that tire. Consider Toyo Open Country MT, Nitto Terra Grappler, BFG TA KO, Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor, BFG MT, Hankook Dynapro MT look for something in either a 285/65 or 305/65.

no im not set on that particular tire... it just looks nice...i heard and seen some bad things on that tire. maybe i'll consider something else. i want something fairly aggressive. i work in the oilfield and need a pretty stout tire to get me where i need to go..i want to spend a grand but a little over or a little under wouldnt hurt anything....thanks

Really?

I also considered using only a 2 or a 2.5 but i dont like the idea of a poly lift and have not heard great things. Also my particular truck has more rake than any other truck that ive seen. it is only a single cab so that may be fooling the eye a lil bit. if u have a good reason i will consider replacing them one day. thanks for all the advice guys!!

a good tire to get would be the Cooper STT in a 285 or 305. They are really good for self cleaning and have a great tread life.
