I just got a '08 FX2 and was looking to level and get some 18 x 9, Moto's 951 and Nitto Grapplers 325/60 R18. But as I understand it that tire may be too big. I couldn't find a Nitto 33 x 12.5 x 18, but found Mickey Thompson 305/60 R18. What offset do I need while avoiding rubbing?

Thanks,

Albert

 

Try to stay close to the oem backspacing of 5.5 inches. I believe that wheel is available with 5.7 inches of bs which would be just about perfect.
You are right about the 325/60-18 (33x13.00) being too much tire for a leveled 4x2. However, Nitto makes the Terra Grappler in a 285/65-18 (33x11.50) size.

 

Thanks for the info. Would the 5.7 bS be the 18 offset?

 

9" wheel with +18mm offset = 5.71" bs.
