Hi guys,

I am debating between a few tire sizes for my Pro Comp 7005 rims that are going on my 2009 F150 FX4. I wanted to check if a 295/70/18 (34.41x11.77) would rub at all? I am also installing the 2" AS leveling kit that is burning a hole on my desk.

Also, if anybody is running this tire setup please post pics.

Thanks!

 

Hey there- I'm running 305/70/R17 Nitto TGs on my 01' FX4 with 2-inch leveling (torsion+blocks) and have had no problems.....well, there's always problems but not any related to tire rubbing anyway!

Hmm thats almost equivelant to a 305/65/18 BFG A/T but at a much better price! I may drop to a 17 for that size. Ugh.... back to the drawing board.

 

It will depend on the width and BS of the wheel.

 

Same as before the 18x9 0 offset and 5" backspace. What do ya think?

 

Hard to remember every member. It will be tight because of the height of the tire, but I think they will fit. Info is limited on the 09's but I think clearance is about the same or a little better than the 04-08's.

 

Ok cool thanks! I didn't mean it that way about remembering lol. Sorry it came out that way.

Maybe instead of me making a bunch of tire size threads can you let me know if any of the below sizes will not fit or need trimming? I am debating between all of the sizes lol.

All Nitto Terra Grappler tires:

295/70/18

305/60/18

325/60/18

325/65/18

All on the 7005 rim with a 2" AS leveled out 2009 F150 FX4.

Thanks!!

 

I have 295/70/18 on my 04 with a 2.5 level on stock rims. Only rubs at full lock.

 

No problem man. I think you will be fine with the 295/70-18, 305/60-18 or 325/60-18 with minor trimming at the most.

 

Wandell will the 305/60-18 or 325/60-18 fit on an 05 FX4 with no trimming with a 2.5" AS? Thats the two sizes Im debating to get.

 

Yes, but as always, it depends on the wheel you use. A lot of people run 325/60-18's using 18x9 inch wheels with 5 inches of backspacing. If you use a wider wheel or one with less backspacing you will probably have to do a little trimming.

 

I plan on using the stock 18" wheels for now. Later Im thinking I will get some 7005's.

 

Ok so now I just need to decide which of these three to get lol. All are within 10-20 bucks of each other.

 

I'd go with the 305/60-18's (33x12.50). A 325mm wide tire is a little too wide for the OEM 18x7.5 inch wheels.

 

Thanks for the help Wandell. Im waiting to hear back from a guy at a local tire shop with a price. He owns the tire shop my company deals with and he gives us really good deals.
