Default 35/12.50/18?

Im sure this has been asked before, i just want to double check that this size tire will fit on a stock 04 F-150 18in rim. I just got a good deal on some nitto mud grapplers. Also, how much of a leveling kit would i have to go with to fit these tires? Right now my truck is a Lariat 4x4 and stock. Any information would help alot.

You will need a 2.5 to sit perfectly level. And Im pretty sure they will fit with the stock rim offset.

They will fit on stock 18s here are my 35x12.5x18 trails. With the stock rims, the tires are super close to the uca. Just be careful with those mud grapplers with the much more aggressive sidewall.

Minor trimming will be necessary. If a reference point is you looking out your windshield behind your steering wheel you will need to...

For front left wheel: Trim the rear bottom portion of the inside of the fender and some of the rear bottom portion as it transitions into the rear lower right portion. took a blade and made vertical slits, banged them back with a hammer, wirebrushed the cuts, cleaned with compressed air, and applied several coats of black rustolium.

For front right wheel: Trim the rear bottom portion of the inside of the fender and some of the rear bottom portion as it transitions into the rear lower left portion.

Pm me if you want pics.
