ok ... so from the tire experts i need some advice.... I want bigger tires for my 22's than a 305/45/R22.... I know nitto makes a 285/50 but the price isn't that much different than a 325/50 so i'd just go with the leveling kit and put on the 325/50 ... now here's my question.. i can get a perelli in a 325/55/R22 ... think i could fit the 325/55/R22 with a 2.5" leveling kit? or if not just with a 2.5... maybe a 2.5 and an AAL?

 

Do you have a 4x4 or 4x2? A 325/55-22 is basically a 36x13.00 tire. A 325/50-22 would be a 35x13.00 tire. I think you will need more than a leveling kit to fit either because of the use of a wider aftermarket wheel.

 

I have a 4x4 and i'm running the Harley 22's... if that matters?

 

You may be able to fit the 305/50-22's using those wheels. I'm sure you will have some minor rubbing on the control arms at full steering lock however.

 

does anyone make a 305/50/22?

 

I'm not sure. I'd suggest looking at Nitto's, BFG's, Toyo's and Kumho's websites.

 

thanks wandell!!!!

 

Do you think I could fit 285/55/22's on a stock hiehgt 2007 SCREW FX4? Mine doesnt sit too extremely low in front...infact if I level it ever I will only probably do a 1.5"

What offset for a 22" wheel thats 9.5" wide would be perfect? What I mean by perfect is, NO rubbing...having a good enough space between the tire and the control arm...

 

THey should fit with a leveling kit. My 22x9.5's have 6.7 inches of backspacing and I have no rubbing with 305/45-22's (33x12.50).

 

well if you have no rubbing you would think I could get by with 4x4 truck running 285/55/22's...especialy the 07's as they sit alot higher than some 04 and 05's.

I had no idea nitto made terra grapplers in this size and it now has me considering 22's again becasue I could have a big rim with an aggressive tire. I think that would give me enough sidewall to look pretty nice.

Now I would love to see pics of this setup....

 

That works out to be a 35x11.50 tire. I'd add a leveling kit up front.

 

actualy on nitto's site they say its just a tad over 34". But ya if I got that tire I would throw on a leveling kit. I seen a few pics of other trucks(titans and tundras ) with this tire setup and it looks killer...big rims but still has quite a bit of sidewall and aggressive tread...best of both worlds.

How much MPG loss do you think I would see with a tire/wheel setup like this?
