A quick "will they fit" and a thanks

ok looking to get BFG A/T KO's within next few months and want to know if they will rub even with trimming or not (05 white screw 2wd with 2.5" HBS leveling kit, 33.7" from ground to top of wheel well on front end, doubt it matters but just some extra info) with 305/65/18 tires. Also looking at 285/65/18's and 275/70/18, sorta leaning towards the 275's out of these 2 because larger diameter and cheaper but opinions on what would look best are welcome

I'd go with the 285/65-18's (33x11.50).

alright thanks, i do like the taller tires but i guess wider makes it look more aggressive

edit* but will the 305/65/18's fit with some trimming for future reference?

sorry to ask again i know yall answer these all the time and I couldn't find a definite answer and i want to be sure before i buy them because i found a SWEET deal to get all 4 new and installed for 800 because a tire shop is closing down. so will the 305/65/18's fit with 2.5 HBS level? I've heard yes, no, maybe, and just about everything else but i did the measurement differences and applied them to the truck and they would fit but heres pics and give me your opinions please. the guy at discount was saying they wouldnt be even close even after I told him i've done research on it, he was kinda being an ***. (Current tires are 285/60/18 nitto terra grapplers)





thumb is just under an inch this is tires facing straight


at full lock

I think they will be extremely close but will fit using OEM wheels. It's basically 34x12.50 tire. You are probably gonna have some minor rubbing and have to do a little trimming.
