I'm exhausted of researching this lol. I have an 04 F150 Lariat Screw with 2.5" level kit. I have in my shopping cart right now 18x10 wheels with 275/70 Ridge Grapplers. I'm not concerned with how far the tires stick out past the fender (fender flares down the road) but how will that setup look, or even work? I don't mind trimming fender wells or even some metal if necessary. I want contact patches large and even wear as this will be my daily driver with light trail use (numbered roads only unless it's private property, of course).
Thanks for the input guys!

 

Which wheels and what would the backspace be? that has alot to do with how it will fit. 275's on a 10 inch wide rim seems a bit narrow to me. I could be wrong. I've always gone with the the tire needing to be 1.5 inch wider then the rim to get a square side wall. stretched looking sidewall look like *** IMHO. I did some checking for ****s and grins. A 295/65/18 would but you at the same height but fill the rim and square out the side wall a boat load better. A 305/60/18 would be another option. The 275/70/18 is recommended for a 7 to 8.5 inch wheel.

 

With a 275 width tire I would not use a 10 inch wide rim, 9 or less is where you need to be. Other than that it will fit fine depending on the rim backspace you might have to do some minor trimming.
