Is yours a 4x4? I have a '06 FX4 with 18" black XD Monsters wrapped in 325/60/18 Cooper Discoverer STT tires. It has a 2" leveling kit in the front and had minimal rubbing before some minor trimming. I would guess that your choice should fit fine.

Your tire shop should know what backspacing to order you. I just told my guys what combo I wanted and they did their magic.

I have 110k miles on a 2" Autospring level kit. No problems. I suggest you try one. I paid about 100 bucks on eBay and it is something you can easily install yourself. It's super easy. Worth the Benjamin and an hour on a Saturday!

Don't forget to align after level, but definitely the best 200 I spent on my truck. Live near autospring so had them install and do the alignment.

I don't really want a leveling kit. Just curious if that size tire with an aftermarket wheel will fit without and suspension mods.

you.ll be fine, go with a +10-18 offset and 4.5-5.5 Back spacing. I just installed wheels, no level yet, but i clear with no rub issues. tires stick out minimally.

Pics and specs in profile

good luck!
