Default largest tire size on level kit on 2wd

was looking at buying 35" tall goodyear duratrac to put on my stock 18" chrome clads. the only 35" tall tire with a 18" in duratrac is a 325/65/18. would that fit on a 2wd with a 2.5" level up front and a AAL in that back without rubbing? i already took ofr the front valence panel due to ranch hand brush guard.

stick with 33's, even if you can make it "fit" doesn't mean you should :P.

Id be more worried about the inner fender.

Im running a 33.5" tire with a 2.5" leveling kit and Im rubbing the inner fender but my wheels are 18x9 and have a -12mm offset. The only thing I can do is grind down the seam behind the fender liner. It only rubs slightly so I left it alone.

True. However with the stock rims I should be clear to run 35". I am going with Goodyear mtr in the future. Which are 285 instead if 325

check out some photos online. 35's on a 2wd with just a leveling kit looks way too crammed in. just my .02

i think that 35" on a 2wd should be fine as long as you run a 2 1/2" level along with a skinny 35"

I dont know if 35" would fit, especially with stock tires. I have 33" with bilsteins set on mid-perch (1.3" Lift) and I think I could fit 275-65s but not any bigger. I would say 34" even with a 2.5" level-not 35" or you may have some serious trimming/rubbing. But it is your vehicle so do whatever will make you happy.

Would you think a 35.1 would fit on the stock 18' Chrome Clad Rims?
