Another 'will it fit'

ive been told it will work, ive been told it wont work, ive been told it will work if i trim alot. Anyone on here can clear the air for me?

325/65/18 BFG A/T on 18x9 Ion Alloy 179s. They come in 0mm at 5inches backspace, and in plus 12 and plus 30mm offsets. How much will they stick out? Think theyll rub or ill need to trim?

They will stick out 2 inches more then stock and will work with a 6" lift on a 4x4. Usually a 5 inch BS is a 0 degree offset. If the truck is only leveled break out the sawzall!! What year truck?

Stick with a 325/60-18 (33x13.00) or add a 3 inch body lift and run the 325/65-18's (35x13.00).

shoulda included a little info...... 08' f150 4x4 ....right now, stock 18s on OEM BFG Rugged Trail.

Wandell.... is the 3inch AS Front, 2inch rear AAL I have on order going to be enough to clear without having to trim to much more than some fender well plastic?

So at 0mm it would be out 2inches? so at 30mm offset it wouldnt really stick out to much more than an inch? Or would I need the 0mm to clearence to the inside?

A 9 inch wide wheel with 5 inches of BS is gonna stick out 2 inches farther than your OEM wheels. You will be able to fit a 325/60-18 using those wheels but you will need more lift to fit 325/65-15's.
