355/65/18 on a leveled 06 fx4?

I have a 06 fx4 supercrew with a 2" leveling kit. I was wondering if 355/65/18 nitto terra grapplers will fit. i dont mind some rubbing. im going to use the stock 18" rims. I can get the tires for dirt cheap. Any suggestions will help.
Thanks
Josh

Thats a big tire for a leveled truck. Its 36x14. Pretty sure you can fit a 35x12.5 on a leveled truck with stock rims.

i mean you can try, but chances are with a 14" wide tire you better be at the drag strip so you only gotta go straight.

Good luck finding a shop to mount those tires on you factory rims. They are way too wide.

x2, most shops around here will only mount a 12.5 tire on stock rim

They wont fit on ur truck with a leveling kit, you gotta figure it is a little bit over 36 1/2 inches tall and 14" wide. When i first got my truck it had a leveling kit and i put 33" tires with 18" aftermarket rims and they rubbed

alright i bought them for 250 bucks. I had a local shop put them on and they barely rubbed. I'm going to get 1.25" wheel spacers and retry. But they looked pretty sweet. Maybe a body lift, but im not sure. Thanks for all the info tho. I wouldnt have bought them if i would of waited a little longer to hear what u had all to say, but i got a steal on them.

I took them off because they rubbed. Otherwise i would of took pics. I have pics of the tires alone that's all though. If anyone knows where i can get some cheap wheel spacers to that would b nice. Or some cheap 18" rims.

You definitely need wider wheels. I'd like to see how they looked mounted on your factory wheels if you have pics.
