Default 35x12.50x18 on stock wheels?

I was wondering if this combination would work? 35x12.50x18 on stock wheels. Also looking for pics of this setup if you have them and what suspension you have done. Trying to figure out if I can do it or will need to get new wheels.

Sorry. 05 SuperCrew 4x4 I'm looking at a set of Gladiator 35x12.50R18 Off Road Mud Terrain. Here is a link of what they look like. I know its not the right size.

you will need a 2 or 2.5 level kit installed and then you will be golden with those tires and stock wheels.

Is there a difference from 04-08? I thought they were all the same.

How does brand effect this decision? I could possibly see sidewall tread impacting however.

04-08 same 2WD to 4WD different... some brands like Nitto trail grappler...their 12.50 tire is actually 13.4 wide...that's why I ask what brand..12.50 will clear the UCA but 13.4 may rub depending on wheel off set.
