I wanna put on 35x12.50x18 Mud Grapplers on my 2005 Ford F-150 FX4

Right now, I don't have a level kit, and lift, or anything, it's all stock.

At the moment I have 33" Fierce Attitude MTZ and they fit fine without rubbing.

I was thinking maybe a 3" Level kit in the front and 1" block in the back? Would I be able to fit the 35"s then? Please help me out people.

 

What wheels are you using? And don't do a 3" level kit, it's gonna wreck front end components. Go with 2.5" level at the most. But depending on wheels you may need a 4" lift kit.

 

I have a 2005 with the Rancho quicklift shocks in the front and Rancho 9000xl in the back and I have 33s right now and a buddy of mine also has his leveled (mine is 1.75" and his is either the same or 2") but he has 35s on and they don't rub on his. He has Mickey Thompson ATZs on

 

What wheels are you using?

 

The stock 18" Ford wheels

 

Aren't the stock wheels like 7.5" wide? Because according to nitto, the 35x12.50r18 mud grap is about 13.4". About an inch too wide to get them to wear properly on those wheels. And since they're pretty aggressive tires you may almost need to go with a 4" lift to avoid any rubbing issues, unless you don't mind doing some trimming and dealing with some rubbing at full lock.

 

Do you know how wide the 20" stock chrome wheels are for a 06' FX4. My dad had 33x12.50x20 and he didn't have to do a thing to his truck.

 

I wanna say they're like 7.5" too but they could be 8". Either way because the mud grapplers in the 35x12.50r18 size measure out to about 13.4" wide you'd need a wheel about 8.5" wide minimum for them.

 

When I had my 05 F150 with a 2" leveling kit I cleared 35" Toyo M/T on stock 18's.

 

Were they 35x12.50x18?

 

Stock Ford 20s are between 8-9" wide

 

8.5 inches wide on the stock 20's with a close to 6.5 inch backspace.

 

Yes, 35x12.50R18 Toyo M/T.

 

I can only speak for the 2013 Platinum 20" wheels. They are 20x8.5 +44 offset 6.5" backspacing.
