Has Anyone Mounted 325/65r18these On Their Stock 18" Rims With A 2 Or 2.5' Leveling Kit? I Have Done Multiple Searches And Cannot Find What I'm Looking For.

That's a really wide tire for a stock rim - what does BFG say the minimum rim width should be? 10"?

Yes a 325mm wide tire is a little too wide for the OEM 7.5 inch wide wheels. However, a couple of members here have done it without any problems. Usually, running a tire on too narrow of a wheel will cause the center portion of the tires tread to wear slightly faster than normal, similar to running too much air pressure.

stock rim are to narrow. I wouldn't recommend it. It wouldn't look right also. because you have a wide tire and rim would like it pushed in. my personal opinion think it would be dangerous of tire failure. Tire bead slipping off the rim 325/65/18 maxx6 18x9

Actually, you are less likely to lose a bead with a narrow wheel.
