Got my tires today! Getting them put on Tuesday hopefully. Can't wait to get em on. Hoping there won't be much trimming involved.

I love the graps. Had several on other trucks, but the 35's on a 8.5 in wheel look a little bulged. These were some tires I had from another truck so I wasn't out much. Def gonna downsize to a 33' I think or maybe buy some 9" wheels.

Looks great man. I don't understand but must be a truck to truck thing. I just had some 35's tried on my truck with 17 inch rims and turn the wheel both ways and nothing was that close to rubbing. So now I have to wait for my tires (on back order).

The only rub that I had was on the front bumper valance. I farm and truck is flexed a lot. Normal road and towing conditions it never rubbed. How wide are yours? I think my problem is mine are actually like a 13.5.

i have the same set up as you except i have 18x9's. I love the look of the stuck out 35's. Who cares about cutting, bc at the end of the day your ride is sick!
