Default Rims & Tries

Will 18" x 9.5 Rims and 35 x 12.5 Tires fit. If not what back spacing would I need to look for?

Refer to the tire manufacturer's spec sheet for minimum and maximum rim/wheel size.

Not a stupid question at all! Which tire are you interested in? Companies (ie, Toyo, Interco, BFG to name a few) have their tire specs available online. Here's an example of Toyo's (see the Rim Width Range column): http://www.toyo.com/docs/tires/produ...;&category=lgt

You can also check Tirerack.com's website (but I prefer going directly to the manufacturers site).

Hope that helps!

This is what i`m thinking of going with, but with an 18" wheel. I`m not that fond of spacers, I`d rather find someone that would make the rim the way I need it.

Any advice would help.

Thanks.

I already ordered 3" Full Traction Ultra Lift.

From what I've read in various forums, procomp tires aren't all that great (expensive and wears fast, etc.). Toyo's MTs seemed to get better reviews. I personally will be getting BFG ATs (I do mostly highway driving) and have had good experience w/ it.
