Thumbs up 35's with 2.5" Did it work?

HE!! Yes!!! I'll post some pictures once i figure out how!! I just put in a 2.5AS front nothing in the rear, although i will be adding something. I am running 35 x 12.5 x 18 Kumho RoadVentur MT KL71 tires, I love em, super quite for mud terrans!!!! No rubbing and i went down a bumpy road still nothing. I'll be taking it off road (mild) to see what happends. But I just wanted to let you guys know, and to thank all the awsome help i got from you guys!!

Compared to the other mud terrians i have rode in, i was shocked at how low it is! I'll let you know how the traction is, but for road noise i almost had to change my boxers!! =P The ride is great to!

Sounds pretty good!

I've looked at those tires before, and think they'd be some pretty good tires, get good traction and mileage out of them. Nice choice.

Let us know when you have the pics!

Not hyjacking anything, but try and let us know when you test it too.... Make sure it looks something like this: https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...158879&width=0

Glad they are working for you. I don't know how they dont rub. I have 305/65/18 BFG's and when I turn the wheel all the way I get minor rubbing on the frame..

Hurry up and get pictures...just be sure to take good angles or you will get slain by the FTE picture mafia...

Those look pretty agressive. I hope you're pleased with em. I just got my 35x16 boggers off the truck today. I am super stoked about getting them mounted for my 01.
