FX4 Rims with the Terra Grapplers!

Just got the 285/65/18 Terra Grapplers for 230 a tire at Discount Tire to wrap the 09-10 FX4 rims I got from my dealer last month....Thanks to all the guys who gave their opinions and help with specs....I am really happy with my choice. Now just what to do next??

Right after I got it....



With the 2" Pro-Comp level...



09-10 FX4 rims wrapped with 285/65/18 Nitto Terra Grapplers...

The pics aren't showing up. I just put 295/70/18's on my FX4 wheels 2 weeks ago. Not a bad look at all.

Looks much better now. The factory pizza-cutters just don't cut it for me. Nice start. Mine's an '05 and we're bout at the same point with mods it looks like.

Here ya go. I put them in a post "Baby got new Shoes" a couple weeks ago if you wanna see more, or check out my albums:







She's got a little of a bulldog stance right now, but gonna be doing an add-a-leaf soon. That'll put a little rake back in. Think it'll be all good then and help with towing.

I've got the same truck, same trim, same color and it's new tire time! Would love to do the full wheel/tire package but loot is tight... so new shoes on the stock FX4 rims is the deal for me. Those 295's look good!

I also have a 2.5" leveler that I've had sitting around for awhile but this might be the time to put it on...

Sorry to resurrect this extremely old thread, but this thread popped up on google. I just bought some of the same rims, and I found an extremely good deal on 4 Nitto Trail Grapplers, but they are 285/60/18. Will they look about the same?

They will be about an inch smaller. 285/65/18 are around 32.6" tall and 11.2" wide and 285/60/18 are around 31.5" tall and 11.2" wide

Again... really sorry to bring up this thread but I've had the rims sitting in the garage for 3 months and want to give them some rubber. Will some 285/60/18's with a 2" level look good? Trying not to break the bank.
