35x13.50 or 325/65 on leveled truck?

anybody here running a 35x13.50 or 325/65 on there truck with a 2" leveling kit? really wanted this size as i have seen them and they look great. wasnt sure what rim to look for though as i know backspacing can be an issue. was looking at motometal 955 18x9 with 4.5 bs and procomp 6089 18x9 with 4.75 backspace. think these will fit? i would stay with a 17" rim but dont see any 35x13.50 listed for 17's. Any of you guys got any pics of your 35x13.50 combos and how much they stick out? dont mind if they stick out a little as i like that look but i dont want them out of the fenders 5 inches. any suggestions on wheels with that tire size?

thanks,
tom

325/65/18

I don't have pictures yet and I have Thuren suspension coming in soon, but I have these tires on my stock truck. I had to cut the front plastic under the bumper a hair and I used a heat gun to mold the back wheel plastic back. They fit great.

I bought a set of 325/65/18 Mickey MTZ's and mounted them on 18X8.5" with 5" backspacing. I did not have a leveling kit and they did rub just a little when I would turn and hit a bump. They stuck out about 1.5". There is a picture of the truck in the third gen performance and accesories. I would down load some more for you but my internet connection sucks.
