This is probably boring news at this point but I thought I would share the photo. I have put on Toyo Open Country A/T II EV tires on Tremor stock wheels. size 305 70R 18s.

I have the Eibach leveling kit in the front. Just the struts/Shocks. It is set at 2.6 inch height. The front damn removed, but I had done that prior to put on a "raptor skid plate.

There is no rubbing except the raptor skid plate lol. I have to reshape it and put it back on. At any rate see the photo attached. I think it looks nice and I am happy with it.

NOTE: I do not need any advice about how the tremor wheels are not rated for the weight of the truck...I am good thanks...

Hey man, you know those Tremor wheels aren’t rated for the Lightning, right?! 😂

Kidding aside, I’d love to see the truck from the front with the skid plate. And also how you pulled that off!

Looks nice.
Do the much larger tires have a significant impact on mi/kwh?

Love it! Almost exactly what I'd like to do sometime in the near future. I like the stock 20" rims that are on mine, and would like meatier tires with a slight height increase .Any pics of the front from down low to show that skid plate would be great!

Looks fantastic, thanks for sharing. I have the AT III EV tires in 275/70R18 and LOVE them. Nice setup.

thank you all for the compliments....I will be sending a photo of the front end with the skid plate on it shortly...I have to make some adjustments on the way that it fits with the bigger tires...you will also get to see the clearance that I have now after the leveling and the new tires....I will report on mi/kw when I have more data.....I am very happy with the way it rides too.

Was it hard to remove the front dam? What do you think? It probably looks better. Does that just help with range or what’s it for?

got Clearance?....lol....before you ask I am not going to report on the mile per kw until I forscan the truck to the new tires....it will be a while though because we are a mac family and the forscan package I need needs micosoft OS (which I hate.) If someone knows different let me know. Next steps are to hook the rear sliding window up to the overhead button (window is installed with motor) and do some more fitting on the skid plate.....btw this is a 2023 ER (131KW) XLT....I have lariat leather in it though.
