I'm searching for these but not finding what I want. I'm looking for pics of 04-08s with a leveling kit and 33 or 35 inch tires.

The specific set up I am after is 2.5" leveling kit, 18" rims, 33/35 x 12.5 and the pocket style fender flares.

Also a heads up on any known issues with this set up would be much appreciated.

thanks

 

I am not certain about this, but i'm not sure if you can fit 35's with a 2.5" leveling kit. I have 4" in the front and still had to trim some valance. Someone else might be able to help you out on this better.

 

I have a 2.5" level and an add a leaf in the rear and have no problems at all. I have 35" tires and you can fit them with some trimming on certain aftermarket wheels if the wheels are atleast 8" wide with atleast 5.5" of backspacing. I know some other people have fit 9" wide wheels but there are a select few that can pull it off.

 

Wrong again I am. Huh. This craps gotta stop happening!

 

What tires are those? Looks great in terms of filling the wheel well. I would be wanting something a little wider to stay flush with the pocket fender flares.

 

Those are the goodyear wrangler duratracs. I love them so far in the mud, snow and on the roads there extremely quite. I chose them because there more aggressive than an all terrain without stepping it up to a mud terrain tire. If you want something to go flush with your fender flares I would recommend a 9" wide wheel with low backspacing to get them sticking out but then you would have to go with a 33" tire.

 

here is my truck with a 2.5inch leveling kit..


this is my truck on basically 35's (315/70r17).. it would rub randomly on weird angles



here is 325/60r18's with the same lift


33x12.50r17 baja claws.. not the best pic but at full flex it doesnt rub. Personally, I think the 315/70r17s look better because it fills the fenders better.. but if you plan on offroading, 33s ftw

 

here's mine with 285/55r20's.

 

Here's my rig with 34" Toyo Open Country MTs with a 2" AS leveling kit on AMP Bitterroot 17 x 8.5 inch wheels with 4.53"s of backspacing...

 

Here's mine on a 3" level and 35" toyos. I did have a fair amount rubbing at half lock and had to do a bit trimming to make them work.

 

Mine has 305/55/20 (basically 33.5/12.5/20) like some of the others said you may get 35 with certain rims...but others will rub bad even with 33
I had to do a good amount of triming on mine to get these to fit with a 20x9 with a -12mm offset and 4.5 backspacing. oh and that is a 2.5 in leveling kit on my truck.

 

As fellow members have stated, it has to do with the rims and tire choice. If you run either your factory rims or an aftermarket wheel with the same specs (I think its 5.5 BS) with a tire no wider than 12.50 you will be good as far as rubbing goes up to a 35". You may have some at full lock but that will depend on the tire design. For example Toyo M/T rub a little more that BFG KM2 because they have larger side lugs.

 

325/60/20 (35.4x12.79) on stock rims. 1/4" spacers and some minor trimming, they still rub at full lock. AS 2.5" level, 3" rear blocks.

 

here is mine 2.5 lvl and 33's

 

Your setup looks very much like what I'm intending. How wide are your tires? I was hoping to get something to fill the wheel well a little more.

The rims I am considering are these:

18x9.5 and i'm assuming a 5.5"backspacing which should give me the same clearance as yours i believe.
