RUbbing with 35's?

Wondering if anyone has issues with a 35x 12.5x18 on stock rims. I noticed the park brake cable on the rear driver side doesnt have much clearance, as well as the strut on the front. I have stock 275.75.18's and i guess there a 10 wide. wondering if anyone could shed some help on this before i buy...thanks

If you have a 4x4 and install a leveling kit you can fit a 35x12.50 by using your oem wheels. You will have minor rubbing on the control arms up front at full steering lock.

Might want to add.....Mine were pro comp extreme a/t. No major side lugs.....maybe it varies from tire to tire

Agreed. I usually try to get people to stay at 33" just to stay on the safe side.

Drop down a notch to a 305x65x18 BFG AT. Close to a 34" tire that look's great on the stock wheel's.
