BIGGEST TIRES

[matt cox]

I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK FOR 2 YEARS AND TIRES ARE FINALLY BALDING. I DIDNT LIKE IN THE 1ST PLACE AS I SHOULD HAVE PUT MUD TIRES . HAVE A LEVELING KIT. CAN I GET 35S?

Yes, with a level kit you can do 35's. The 35x13.50 might rub inside at full steering lock with OEM wheels.

Ya like the other poster said...with the OEM wheels you'll need a set of spacers in order to keep from rubbing.

If you're going aftermarket, you'll need an offset to push the rims out a bit so the 35's clear the rear components.

Which offsets and what size 35s?

You'd be fine with -12mm offset. Possibly the 0mm offset as well although I'm not positive...someone who has done that offset will be able to answer that more succinctly.

The 35x12.5x20 will work and I believe that the 35x12.5x18 will also do the job.

with the stock 20x8 wheels you should be able to run 35x12.5x20 tires with the level kit.

with the stock 20x9 wheels you would need a 1/4" spacer to fit 35x12.5x20.

with aftermarket wheels there are so many different options and variable that you would have to give more info for the look you want.

35x13.5x20 wouldn't even mount because the tire would hit the upper control arm before the wheel would fit flush on the hub

I typed that wrong. I meant a 35x12.5....using the spare laptop here.

 

[matt cox]

So...differing answers?

35 12.50 will fit on factory 20", but you may get some rubbing so a 1/4" spacer is recommended to prevent that. If you're running aftermarket rims you're better off buying wheels with more offset instead of using the spacer. quietpeen pretty much summed it up. Nitto makes a 35 11.50 which technically should clear without a spacer, but i'm not sure.
