Conversation Between tims01 and waterbuzzard

hi im running the tera graplers from nitto this ex you see is 2wd stock but the tires are not there 10 ply lode range e 285/ 75/ 16 good tire i love them but there a little bit biger than stock so it throws off the speed reading aswell as makes the gears taller .. as far as spacing i dont know mine dont rub i would suggest you call a tire store to find out .. some people on this site have gone to the 315 on a stock rim with little to no rubbing

Hi, saw a pic of your ex. What size tires are you running? Is your ex stock?
I have a stock 2005 4x4 excursion. Im currently running 285 75 r16 BFG A/T. I need new tires, looking to replace them with 315 75 r16 with a 16x8 wheel. I dont want to do anything to the suspension, just fill out the wheel well. Can it be done? Also what wheel spacing do I need on the 16x8 wheel.
