Factory Wheels with Aftermarket Tire Thread

[flynavy]

Alright gents I finally did it! Blacked out stock 18 inch sport wheels with 295/70/18 nitto ridge grapplers and 2inch level

Oh baby. I also have a lead foot. How did you get the wheels done? Looks awesome man, I haven’t really settled on a tire but I did order the Falkens, mainly because I’m a cheap ass. What did the tires run you?

Thanks man! So check this out, I plasti dipped them myself so it ran me about $30. As for the tires, I wasn’t ready to spend $1,400 just yet so I found a used set, in good condition on offer up. Ran me $260 for all 4, talk about a deal! Still have lots of life left and these will be fine to get me through a year and then I’ll buy some new ones. Ballin on a budget lol.

Wow that’s awesome, I didn’t even think to look at used tires. You sprayed them with tires already on?

Yes, if you use tire shine on the tires before you spray them then you can just wipe the over spray off very easily. Plasti dip is peelable and removable. I hadn’t done it yet in the pictures but did it after and it all came off easily. Hard to tell because of the lighting, but here’s some pics after I cleaned them up.

Here are 295/70R18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the stock 18" sport wheels. Fit perfect, no rubbing!

What lift do you have? I’m looking to do the same with tire size and rim?

So my tire deal fell through and found better prices on 295/65r20. Any chance these would fit stock wheels without level (short term)

If you are running stock wheels, yes they should fit.

That’s a tire over 35” tall and 11.6” wide. We know the 285/65/20 fits stock but I’m not sure the 295/65/20 will?

They will likely rub. Folks with a 2 inch lift are even saying that some rubbing is noticed. I have not seen anyone fit 295/65/20 without a lift. You might be the first to confirm this.

*****URGENT!!!!

I apologize, I misread the tire size....295/65/20 will indeed NOT fit on stock ride height....sorry for the confusion

this is what is frustrating, i have read the p/b sits lower and i think those are the people who have had rubbing with certain sizes, but others are having no trouble with 285/65r20. The American Trucks video fits a 315/70r17 on without any rubbing and I believe a large port of the rubbing issue stems from width on many tires. Since these are marginally taller than the 315's but are an inch narrower the clearances should work, in theory. But....i dont know if i want to be a guinea pig
