Anyone here running Nitto Trail Grapplers 35x12.5x17 on stock 17 inch rims? I am trying to avoid buying new rims right now and was curious if these would fit without an issue. Thanks in advance.

You will generally a 8.5" to 9.5"wide rim with 4.0 BS or less. I have a friend with 35x12.5R17 mud grapplers on stock rims with spacers though.

Will they fit on your rims? Yes. Will they rub somewhere? Perhaps. Will you need spacers to make them work? Probably. But they will fit your rims.

I have spacers that I can use. I know technically they would fit. I was just seeing if anyone ran into any issues. I appreciate the input

my buddy has the grapplers and they are wide as all get out. I think they would be too wide for stock rims. you might be able to get them mounted but would not be the best choice.

I'm running the same setup, they fit on the rims, but you need wheel spacers to keep them from rubbing.
