18s and 35s

I have a Daystar leveling kit. I am looking to run 18" chrome XD Monsters with 35's. They have an 5.71" backspacing and +18 offset. Will these wheels work with 35" tires? Does anybody else have this wheel and tire combo? If so post some pics.

You shouldn't have any real problems out of that setup. It's a good BS for these trucks.

If you don't have a need for a more aggresive tire, look at the Nitto Dura Grapplers in a 305/70R18E. It is about 35.5" tall, 12" wide, load range E, and looks to be a fantastic all around tire. If I were interested in running aftermarket wheels, they would be what I would go for in a heartbeat.

I don't know of anyone running that particular size (i think it's a pretty new size release) but the general consensus of all the Dura Grappler owners I've read about is nothing but positive. Stellar reviews all around.

Nitto and Toyo make a 285/75R18 that are just short of 35". The narrower tread should yield better mileage.
