Where can I get 36" 12.50 20 tires?

Hi everybody,

I have a 2004 V10 4x4 Excursion. Among the modifications is a ProComp 4" suspension lift. My Ex runs on Moto Metal MO951 Chrome rims, 20x10, 8/170, ET -18, BSM 4.79, with Nitto Trail Grappler tires 315/60/20 (35"/12.5"/20"). To avoid rubbing, the plastic part beneath the chrome of the front bumper were shaved a bit. So, I have no rubbing issues.

My question is where I can get 36"/12.50/20 tires that fit on my Moto rims and would they create any rubbing issues?

Thank you very much for any good advice and HAPPY EASTER!

Irok Rdials come in that size. Had a 2003 f250 with 4inch lift and ran that size. No rubbing issues at all.

I checked on their website IROK | Interco Tire
The Irok is available in 36/13.50/20. I am afraid that the 13.50 width will cause rubbing. I'd prefer 12.50 but didn't see those tires with that width on their website. Also, if I understand correctly, the F250 are 2" higher than the Excursion. In other words, to reach your 4" lift, I would need to get a 6" lift on my Excursion.

Yeah mine were 13.50. Installing a 4" f250 lift on an Excursion equals 6". Really great tires though. Run them on my JK. Once I lift my EX I'll be running them too.

Right. I believe I need to stick to 12.50s because I don't want to make any further modifications. In case there are no 36"/12.50/20 on the market, perhaps I should go for 37"/12.50/20? I noted that the 37"/12.50/20 Iroks have an actual diameter of 36.80". I also noted that the 37"/12.50/20 Nitto Trail Grapplers have an actual diameter of 36.77". This is only 1.73" more than my current 35"/12.50/20 Trail Grapplers (with an actual diameter of 35.04")...

Hence, I am wondering whether 37"s would fit without rubbing? I don't do any hauling nor off-roading.
