Default Nitto Trail Grappler

So has anyone wrapped their 2011 FX4 stock 18" with the 295/70?

Its going to be time for tires come spring 2014 and trying to get some ideas.

(i will have the rough country's #570P -- 2.5 level w/rear kit)

Had that size on my 11 FX4 with a 3" leveling kit. Have since lifted (since the 3" leveling kit the previous owner installed was garbage) with a Rancho 4" and went with the 295/65/20 (35.47"x12.33") Trail Grapplers. Didn't have any rubbing or issues with the 295/70/18s when I had them. Really like these tires! Here's a good thread with tons of info and pics:

i am running this setup right now, except i am running a 2" level kit.
i have never had any rubbing issues or anything. love the tires, they dig well in the mud.

Good looking setup!

OP, I think this is a great route to go if you're not going with a full lift kit. Looks great and still aggressive looking.

I wouldn't mess with the dash. Just swap your tpms sensors if you get new wheels. It is pretty easy. Any tire/wheel shop can do it.

Yeah they have the sensors in the valve stem. Easily swapped.
