So got my 18x9 xd's in and they look great so I dropem off to get my new terra grapplers mounted and I get a call saying its a no go "rims are to wide"

Now I got a set of 275 70 18's but before I put the cash down I searched this site and many others and many have this set up. There have been comments that they are a tricky to mount but there are guys that run them nun the less. So........... Other weird thing (I didn't measure/don't have them to measure for a few days) buddy that is trying to mount them up say the rims are 9.5 wide not 9.??????

This (small) build rims, tires, lift I was hoping to have all finished about a month ago and Im need a little last minute input before I pull the ripcord.

Should I

Say hell to the rims and mount the terra grapplers on my stock rims. I like the xd's on the truck way more than the tires

Assuming I can send the tires back. Go bigger on the terra's to 295 70 18 and enjoy the rims I want on the truck. Actually found this post tonight and its making me think this is the way to go. Post #9 https://www.f150forum.com/f38/advice-pics-73903/

or kinda my least favorite at the moment cause its a buddy giving me a hand at this. Grab the rims and tires and see if somewhere else can get them mounted as is.

BTW got a 2 inch ready lift and a 2 inch rear block going in.

 

id call another shop i had the same issue with my factory wheels and my 33x12.50 mud grapplers no one wanted to touch them since its a 7.5" factory wheel or 7" one of those but a shop i found did it and thats all she wrote then i got some 18x9 ads and now I'm shopping again haha!
