325/60R18's
 
...on a 2WD F150 SuperCab? Just wondering what you think because I ordered the Terra Grapplers with XD Monsters yesterday. I'm hoping they will fit! I am putting them on after the leveling kit is installed, and I know I'll probably have to cut some of my front fender. Do you guys think this will size will fit with some cutting??

I would think not on a 2wd. They fit with a little room to spare on a 4wd.

I agree. I'd add a body lift also.

A body lift with the leveling kit should do the trick. What are the specs on the wheels you ordered?

You will still rub the inner fender which you can't trim much b/c there is metal there. I don't know if your aware that 2wd are 2" lower than 4wd's. So, you are basically trying to stuff 35's into what is a stock level 4x4. Good luck, sounds like a sweet tire and wheel combo:thumbsup:

He's asking about 325/60-18's which are basically a 33x13.00 tire. The wheel will play a huge part in fitment. You should be fine with a leveling kit and body lift if you use a 9 inch wide wheel with 5 to 6 inches of backspacing.

Why can't I just cut through the metal?

Body lifts cost double the price as they cost to install them. They are a waste of money and if I was going to spend $900 getting a body lift installed, I might as well save a couple extra hundred bucks and get a real lift. For the F-150, the whole interior of the cab has to be taken out to install the body lift, as I hear. Also, the specs on the wheels I ordered are 18x9, Offset: -12, Backspacing: 4.53.

Well since you dont want to do a BL lets hope they fit with those wheel specs.

Yeah I'm a little nervous about them fitting, but the place I'm going to I trust very much and they will do anything to get those tires to fit. I'm sure they'll have to cut a lot of the fender but its worth not having to send those big 325s back in the mail! :D

You can. However, there is only so much you can trim and there are several body panels conecting in that area. There's a good chance it still won't fit.
