Hey all, so I finally pulled the trigger today and bought (5) Cooper STT TEK3 325/65R18 (35's) and I should have them early next week, question is: these are 13.5 wide...I also bought wheels with 5.0 Backspacing, will I have any issues with rubbing? they are also Load E tire, will the ride be really bad? I will be running this setup with a TF 2.5 Coil w/ shocks. Can't wait till I get everything to put it all together thanks again.

 

Anyone??? bump!!!

 

bump!!!!!!!!

 

Im far from an expert on the whole backspacing issue but from what ive read in the past, that wide of tire on a wheel with 5.0 backspacing will probably rub, alot of people would recommend 4.5 or less, someone correct me if im wrong and help a brother out also. Maybe you have but try doin a search also, good luck!

 

One more thing the ride will be a little stiff with those tires but they are really good tires in my opinion

 

Hey, thanks! my wheel is also 18x9. I am really hoping it doesnt rub!!

 

You can adjust the air pressure for the E range tire, but I'm not sure it'll be enough. That's a 10 ply tire. They are really stiff. I had some on my powerstroke truck and I tried everything and could still feel every bump in the road. Lotsa luck.
