Finally installed! 18x9 XD Monster 305-65-18 BFG

Finally got the rims and tires installed! I went with the XD 18x9 4.5 backspacing in BFG all terrain that is a 305 65 18. I had to do some trimming on plastic wall and the front valance just a bit. No rubbing at all afterwards! They lost one rim in shipping so I ran around a bit on 2 new front tires and rims for a couple hours. Then tomorrow the Camburg upper A arm will be going all.

Looks good. I don't think I've ever seen a set of Monsters with raised white letter tires before.

Same here, fits perfectly with a white truck.

Thanks for the compliment. I really wanted to change the look of it. Nobody has white letters on it so I thought I would try it and I think it looks good. I appreciate the help from everyone here! Especially wendall! Thanks man. I owe you a 6 pack!

This is the only occasion IMO where white letters out looks good. Have fun keeping them white and clean, lol. Why the UCAs?

those wheels are so damn beautiful and i think the RWL takes away from them. just my opinion, still looks good though.

The raised white lettering reminds me of years gone by... in a good way! Now, get that light bar installed in your bed Marty McFly style.

That looks really good, The first thing I thought was how good those wheels looked with the BFG's and the RWL's, as others have posted... sweet!

Did you get the UCA direct from camburg? I need to get mine soon. I feel like if i take her off road my ball joint is going to pop. You wouldn't happen to be running the Sway Away shocks on the rear are you? Nice setup though. Looks amazing!

I did get it on today. I have some rubbing issues as the alignmenet tech put a negative caster on the truck. Camburg said to max out on the positive caster to get more movement of the wheel forward. The ride with the new upper a arm is amazing. I am getting the sway aways next month.
