Here are some picks I took while cutting the metal behind plastic wheel well to fit 35's on -12 offset wheels. I cut the firewall pinch weld out then tack welded remaining metal back together (you could probably get away without tack welding this as it is pretty thick metal in this area). Then I primered bare metal and used a body seam sealer to seal up tight, Then I painted and undercoated this area. Then I had to cut the bottom inside of the fender about 1 and 1/2"s then reattached plastic wheel well to firewall with stainless steel screw to pull plastic against pinch weld area that I removed

I'd like to report that I now have about 30K miles on my Kelly Safari TSRs and they still have about 80% tread.

NEVER had a tire perform this well.

Ok Folks. I need a hand.

Does anyone have any Photo's of a Leveled F150 on Duratracs With the FX4 20" wheels?

And beyond that, is 285/60/20 the size I should be looking for to do that? looking at a 1.5" level on the front of the FX4, maybe Raptor Blocks in the rear.

I need winter tires in New England, but my Scorpions are also fairly toasted, so I'd just like to get one tire that can do everything.

Sorry for the foggy pics. We have a storm rolling through. I needed something that would increase my tow/haul ability and this is what I came up with. Michelin LT275/65-18E M/S2's on 18 X 9 Method Race Wheels. The truck is 2WD at bone stock height.



This is a true truck wheel. 4100 pound wheel capacity, 3600 on the tires.



+18mm Offset widens the stance but reduced the clearance to a minimum 1/2 inch at the critical spots. That was as close as I wanted to be.






Hope you found this helpful.
