Got my new shoes

well ive been a fan of mickey thompson wheels so i took advantage of their 18x10 blowout they had i got them for 148$ and i ordered 325/60/18 cooper discoverer STT well the tires came in today and took the wheels over and had them mounted and balanced but i have to wait until next week to put them on as my truck has a appointment for a 2in leveling kit... the more and more i look at these tires they look freakin huge and i hope they fit without any issues most people say they wont rub beacuse of the 6inches of backspacing i hope there right... i will post pictures when they are on

That wheel will stick out 2 inches more than stock, going to be close in the front with those wide tires. I'd run about 42 to 44 psi in them. Ought to look great!

So which wheels did you get and where did you get them from?

You should be fine as far as fitment, but you may have to trim a little plastic.
As for tire pressure, I'd use 40 psi as a starting point. 30 psi is too low.
