I got an 09 XLT, I think there are some difference with the front suspension, anyway I just put a set of Moto Metal 18x9 6.18" Backspace +30mm offset and Nitto Terra Grappler 325/60R18 (33x13) and there is absolutly no rubbing. My truck is stock, no level and no lift. Granted, there is only about 1/2" clearance from the Upper Control Arm to the inside of the tire and about 1/2" to the air dam when the wheel is fully cranked but they fit like a glove.

with a 2" leveler, i would got with a 285/65/20 if you got 20's or if you got 18's, 285/75/18 those are the tallest and widest you can get away with and have no rubbing, however you will need to trim the corner of the valance though.

Default tires and wheels

I got my 2.5 autospring level kit- 325/60R18 Nitto Terra Grapplers and 18" KMC rockstars put on Friday. When the tire is cranked all the way it was slightly hitting the running boards and plastic inside the wheel well. I trimmed the boards and plastic in the wells and its good to go. Now I have to see if I rub at all when I hit the logging trails up north! It looks pretty bad ***- I will post some pics when I get a chance. I would go with 305's if I were to do it again.

Hey guys I got a 3" body on my 96 with 33s, but I've been trying to figure out if I could fit 35s with a leveling kit. Possibly? I dont want to have to cut anymore though. Already cut some of the bumper to keep the tires from rubbing. Thanks
