thank you for all those specs. Given the specs It appears I am ok with the 12.5's. I feel I will have sufficient fender clearance so that should not be a problem but I will check. but I have clearance from suspension which was my concern.
Sorry as I didn't realize stock wheel was 7.5 vs 8.5. I also was wrong on the offset too. Still not sure what Im gonna do but man thanks for that info. the side notes REALLY HELP.... I think I will measure for the suspension clearance.....and I don't need a lift...but maybe I will do a level kit anyways...not sure on that at this point. If I think I need more clearance on the fenders I can go with the level kit.....man that site offers more than the tire calc sight I was using. it did not give me the side notes...
plus as I knew the speedometer is not that far off and if I want I may get into the forscan stuff so I would be able to fix that.
Kudos to the RajunKajun59!!!!!!!!!!
did your sight do the side notes too or did you have to figure all that. thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This might help answer some of the recent questions around here. I went with the new Cooper Discoverer AT3-XLT tires. I wasn't sure about the new more aggressive looking sidewall, but they have grown on me and I have had tons of compliments.
Stock tires and wheels were the 275/65/18 Wranglers on stock Ford wheels, the tire height was right at 32.0".
I got the Fuel 564 "Beast" 18X9" wheels and the Cooper Discoverer AT3-XLTs in 305/65/18, which if you do the math is a 12" wide tire at 33.6" tall. I thought it might be a little tall but it looks great and did not take a performance hit. Mileage has dropped off about 1 mpg.
I had to trim about a 1/2" off the corner of the plastic air dam, but otherwise no fitment issues. This truck had a leveling kit in front when I got it, which I think is 1.5", but might be 2".
Are there any wheels similar to Chrome Fuel Hostage 20x9s? I like the look of them, but am interested in seeing any models that other brands have that may be similar before I fully decide on those.
Just searched some more, I kinda like the chrome Asanti AB102s, not sure on price or quality though.
Thanks for some of the inputs. I’m new to learning about 33” tires. When searching do you search for something like a 285/60/20? Or are they listed as 33” tires.
