18x9 rockstars,...tires w/leveling kit???

I bought some 18x9 rockstars with 4.75" BS (I think), I'm running a 2" leveling kit,...I'm looking for some tires at this point, something AT with an E rating...is anyone running anything like this? or know what the biggest tire size I can run like this without any rub?


TIA.

For your information, they have a 5" backspacing. I run 35x12.50 Cooper STT's on black 18x9 Rockstars with 3" of lift and have no rub at all. This is with the addition of longer control arms though. I WOUld say a 305 series tire or a 33x12.50 would be the biggest without some rubbing.

Does anyone know what the load rating is on the Rockstars or the Monster wheels? I'm planning on getting the Monster wheels because when Discount tire was mounting my BFGs, they messed up the rim of two of my wheels.

Ask and you shall recieve. Pics of black 18x9 Rockstars/35x12.50x18 Cooper STT's and a Carli 3" lift.

I haven't got the center caps put back on. Just finished the lift and new tires. Kinda debating on leaving them off; I think it would look pretty decent and complete the look I'm going for if I polished and then painted the hubs with some matte black paint.

get pro-comp extreme all terrain 305/75/r18's you can not beat them. 20000 miles still have at least 60% tread left!

Just off the top of my head I think the RS are rated at 3400.

Just got my Rockstars on and the center caps bug the crap outta me?? Why do they sit so far off the wheel? You can easily see the hubs? What gives....
Had I known, I'd have just waited for two months for the Monsters to get off backorder???
