Tire size question / Pic request

I have an 08 reg cab 2WD and am going to put a set of Moto Metal 951 Black wheels on it. The tire of choice is the Toyo M/T but I need to know what size I can run without it rubbing.

Wheel specs:
18x9 6x135 -12 4.53 of Backspacing

Also, if anyone is running the 951's with -12 4.53 BS I could use a picture of the lip and how far they stick out. Thanks.

Do you have any sort of lift on this truck?

Good question, I usually put that info in the post. the truck will have a 2.5" AS up front and 1" blocks in the back. That levels out a 2wd reg cab. I already have both but I left them off until I can get my wheels, which is now.

I'm running 34"s, but I have a 4x4 with a 2" leveling kit. You should be able to run 33s on a 2wd with a leveling kit without a problem. I have 17x8.5 wheels with the same BS as your specs.





Remember, a 2wd are lower than a 4wd...

With that bs a 33x12.50 would be really tight on a 4x2. I'm sure you would have to do some trimming.
