M/T tires for 18" stock rims??

Any suggestions what mud tires work with these wheels? I'm leaning toward say a Toyo-like tire. Would those fit 18"rims? Thanks.

From what I've read, there's a pretty poor selection of tires for the Jeep 18"s, Tire Rack has nothing for your stock size, I'd suggest just going with a 17" rim and open up the field a bit.

Actually there are plenty to choose from, Tire Rack is the last place you want to look. Looking through the off road mags. will give you lots of vendors to choose from.

I didn't think you fit could much larger than stock without a lift and/or spacer?

I've been doing research on the same thing.

For the price of 5 tires that fit the 18's, you can get 5 rims AND 5 tires in 15's or 16's. (which I think look better anyway)

15 and 16's are better if you are going to air down your tires, gives a bigger footprint.
