18" tire question

Any input as to whether these new BF Goodrich tires (by September there should be two additional size tires available in 18") 305/65/18 would fit on a FX 4X4 w/o any lift kits being installed. They measure out at 33.6/12.0.

This is for BF Goodrich All Terrain TA K/O
285/65/18 ......already available
305/65/18........coming in September

Me too. I see the BFG site has the 285s out there now, but not the 305s. The 285s they say have a 32.4 inch diameter, about the same as the conti's that came on my truck. An extra inch (if that's what the 305s end up being) should be fine...

I think I'll run by a tire dealer and see if they have any news. Couldn't even find the 285 yet at places like TireRack...
