Won't fit without rubbing if you are using the stock 20's. Your gonna need a different wheel with lower offset to run 35x-12.50's

That's what I thought once I woke up today. Going to go with either 305/55 or another set of 275/65s I imagine since the funds aren't available to blow on a lift right now and new tires.

I don't think you will have a problem with height running a 2" level in the front. Not positive on that though! Your main issue is the width. You could
Try running a 285/65/20. That us a 34.7 inch tall tire but only 11.2 inches wide. Best thing is to find a tire shop and have them test fit it.

I've been running the 275/65's (34.1") for almost a year now with no issues but they are a bit slimmer. I may go a little wider but not much unless I lift it.

It's all good, I appreciate everyone's response. I was going to buy a set off the classified section on here but they are sold now and I went ahead and got a set of the Pirelli's with a couple hundred miles on them for a couple hundred bucks; I couldn't pass on the deal even if they are 32's (I think?) and no one likes them lol. I'll enjoy a little better mpg until I decide if I'm going to lift it or not and then I'll worry about some big boy tires again haha.

2011 FX4 5.0 295/60-20 Trail Grapplers with a 2" spacer...no rubbing but very close to the UCA, I would not reccomend this tire size on stock rims unless you are willing to use a spacer, I am going to add a 1/4" spacer.

I just had to take my trails off off my stock wheels cause of rubbing the ball joint. I dont like wheel spacers. Glad I bought my tires from amazon.com. Gotta love the return policy.

Will 295/65/18 fit on a stock 4x4 or do you need a level kit and/or wheels with different backspacing from stock (XLT chrome package).
