Default tire help!

So I put a hbs 2.5 leveling kit on my pickup. I have an 04 lariat. It has the bigger tires and believe 17 inch wheels. I was going to get my tires for now and wheels later. is the 18 in the 325/60/18 the size of wheel that fits in the tire? I'm trying find a good set of all terains that will fit my stock 17's and wondering if itd have be 325/60/17? Thanks a ton

yes it will have to be 325/60/17 (if the rims really are 17). Check the tires on there now they should say the size on them somewhere.

Eh I wouldn't be so hasty as to put those tires on because they are only 32". Personally I would do at least 33"s, and you can even clear up to a 35" with a 2.5" leveling kit on a 4x4. Only thing different I see about these tires from the 275/65/18 would be they are really wide haha.

So i decided I really like the nitto terra grapplers 325/60/18. I currently have the stock lariat 18 inch wheels and not going to be able order wheels now for awhile. So are these going to fit alright on the stock 18 inch wheel? Ive also heard of people talking about offset rim needed to fit okay. Any help? sorry its all greek to me!
