Need new tires - 2005 XLT Supercrew

I have a readylift leveling kit and currently have some 33" Toyo ATs on 20" KMC rockstars. I am wondering if 35" tires will fit without rubbing ( the kit says they will fit). also looking for some recommendations for tires for either mud or a good AT.

It depends on the wheel used. You can fit a 35x12.50 on a 4x4 with ony a leveling kit by using the OEM wheels or an aftermarket 8 inch wide wheel with 5.5 inches of backspacing.

with the backspacing on the rockstars you are going to have to use an AT tire and do some trimming...they will rub pretty bad with 35's

I would stick to 33's if you have aftermarket wheels....35's work best with stock wheel configurations and backspacing with minimal trimming required.

AT:
Nitto Terra Grappler
BFG AT KO
Goodyear Duratrac

MT:
Toyo Open Country MT
BFG KM2
Nitto Mud Grappler

Plenty of tires out there to choose from...find something that works great for you
