Default Tire Size Question

Hello to all from Little Rock!

I have a question - my son's 07 JK unlimited has a 3 inch lift, 1.5 spider trax spacers and we are running stock Sahara 18" rims w/ Nitto Mud Grapplers 35x12.5 18.

I want to put on Nitto Terra Grappler's - will 325/65/18 34.6x12.8 fit on the stock 18" Sahara wheels?

i guess they will fit but from what ive read the stock 18' sahara are 7.5 width and i guess those tires need minimum 8.5 or 9 inch whels, dont know yet actually what could be the problem but i was buying that size of tire and evrybody told me not to put them on stock wheels....

On the Nitto web site, they recommend a 9 inch rim but I have found several posts using the search function that it worked using the stock 18" rims.

So now 1 for and 1 against - tie breaker anyone?
