Default New 35x12.5R18 and NO RUBBING take a look!!!

Just got my new BF KM2's 35x12.5R18 with a 2" leveling kit. There is no rubbing anywhere, I did not even have to trim my valance!!! I love the way it looks now what yall think.The KM2's are awesome so far have not got in the mud yet but cant wait lol we just got some rain here in MS so we might have a little mud somewhere !! I will post some mud pics when ever i find mud. This is my baby..

What is the width of your factory rim? I am looking to put 33's on my factory rim. I have XLT rims 18 x 7.5.

Go for it, you'll be fine.


and to the OP. Looks great, but as ATOM said a little too crammed in those wheel wells.

2004 - u can easily put 33s on your stock rims . I put 295/70s on my wifes 4x4 with no problem at all. And could have gone with 305s.

the reason they dont rub for "normal" driving is because you have the stock wheels. not all, but most people get new wheels with the tires, and that is where they run into problems with the 35's on a leveling kit. but, like said above, with a little articulation, you will probably rub as well.... that being said, go have fun with it, but go slow !!!

Looks good man. But if you ever tweak the suspension, expect to have the tires rub.
