So much nicer with 35" tires. Big trucks need big tires.

Thanks guys. The tires are 35x12.50/17 Hankook MTs.

The only lift is a 2" leveling kit and 2.5" rear block.

I'm running 17X9 with Yokohama ATs in 35" but I still have my stock (Lariat) 18 rims stored away, no problem with rim width?

Looks great. Stock springs? Heavy service suspension? I wonder with my 350 and heavy service suspension if I put a leveling kit on her if I could fit 37's... hard to tell from your truck but your wheel wells hardly even looked 'stuffed' in those pics. Looks almost 'factory' lol... they make these trucks look so big these days the 35's lookright at home. Nice

you clear those with no lift? i have a 2000 v10 with 33 x 12.5 x 16.5's on 16.5 x 10 wheels but im thinking of trying 35's next year but unsure if they will clear when turning and such?

Rear has 4" blocks, that were there when I got the truck, and no blocks or anything on the front, other than stock, as far as I am aware of. I do get a minor rub at full lock, to the left, on the inner fender liner, drivers side. Tires are 315/75/16. Wheels are stock backspace, 16x8.
