Default 35" Trail grapplers / 20" Fuel mavericks!

Finally got my new tires installed! I was worried they weren't going to fit. But they did. Actually don't scrub at all in drive at full lock, didn't need any trimming but did some anyways for uneven pavement and offroad. At first they rubbed in reverse but I trimmed it up and now it doesn't scrub at all. If it does it is not noticeable. Clears control arms and everything just fine. Very happy how it turned out.


Wheels are 20x9 and +20 offset. Tires 35x12.50x20. Truck is leveled, not sure the spec on my leveling kit though.

I was originally going to go with mavericks on my truck but couldn't pass up the deal on my xd's

Always loved these wheels. Look great!

More of a factory offset would cancel out any rubbing or need to trim.. Those rims fit perfectly...

Yeah, this was high as offset as I could get in this wheel. You also can't go too close to the stock offset with wide tires because it will rub on steering component's.

Looks great man. Although compared to my -12 offset those wheels look like they stick out a lot. Maybe a bad angle.

Good stuff OP.

What model and size tire did you have before? How has it affected your power and ride?

Could you post some pics from front and rear to show how much they are sticking out?

They do stick out a little, it might just be the angle though, its not a lot but a good amount. I like some stance though.

I had 285/75/18 toyo at 2's, they are a 34.8" tall but only 11.73" wide (for sale btw) compared to these are 13.39" wide I think. As far as power and ride, I definitely notice a difference in power and a little in steering, it does feel a little more sluggish even with my programmer. Ride is about the same, didn't notice a difference there besides at under 10 mph you can feel the lugs of the tread. MPG also dropped about 2 mpg at least.


I will get some pictures tomorrow morning of side views and all that for you guys.
