Default Those wondering about tire size with no suspension lift

Just got new wheels and tires put on. I bought 18X9.5 black rhino armory wheels and wrapped them in 35x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grappler tires. Here is Texas there are no tire coverage laws or fender laws so I just went ahead and took those off one afternoon after about 10 beers. I did trim the front bumper as I was afraid of clearance there too but I made end caps to cover up the cut out of the left over that i'll be putting on tomorrow. I also want to mention the only "lift" i have is a 1.25" Teraflex body lift, and i did that just because I've had it for over a year and decided it was time to put it on. The wheels have a 4.5" back space and nothing is rubbing so far. I went with 18" wheels because I did the Mopar big break upgrade kit in November and when i put the stock wheels back on the wheel weights rubbed (thats how tight it was in there) so i went bigger. Anyways if anyone has any questions or anything I will help as much as possible as I found finding answers for the questions i had difficult.

ACE engineering inner fronts. They also make a block off plate for the giant gap at the rear of the front tire where the two body pieces meet. I mounted mine with nutserts versus just drilling and through bolting.
