Adding a 2.5" Pro Comp level and 20x9 Fuel Wheels with 20 mm offset
Dealer has concerns with running a 35x12.5x20
I see others have run this tire on stock wheels.
Does anyone have any thoughts on if these tires will fit or not?
His response was the difference in wheel specs over stock wheels will cause an issue

Not having my truck yet, I can't say for sure.
That said, the 20mm offset is where my calculations are at with an 18x9 34.6" 12.1" wheel/tire combo.
A 12.5 may need a bit more aggressive offset (maybe 0 or even negative offset?

Lol. I knew I could count on you to help. Thank you. Picking up truck Tuesday, wheels on the way. Will let you know once all the pieces are together.

Depending on the tires you are looking at. 295/60r20 I think will fit. Maybe 305/60 may fit, too.
 
FYI, wheel guy called me in to test fit one wheel before he mounted everything and it all barely fits, no rubbing, no cutting and seems to have enough clearance for suspension travel. Now the wait until Friday to have it all installed.

That's awesome news! doesn't mean I'm right but it does mean that's a hell of a start

LOL, you were right sir take the credit. BTW, your truck is really looking good. Congratulations on finally being able to get your hands on it

make sure they test full droop (if that's a thing for you).
 
So we arnt sure if these trucks will fit 35s with a 2.5 inch level and factory rims??? I had a 15 xlt with 35 12.5 x18 and a 2.5 level on factory rims no issues and the same thing on my 17 larait.. I assumed a 35 12.5 would fit with no issues

I think the only difference between those two and the tremor is the tremor offset is 34 and I believe the non tremor wheels are 44. That just pushes the wheels out a little less than a half an inch. The other big difference is the way they shaped the front bumper to go to nearly a full 90 degrees from the ground.
 
Not the greatest pics, but can confirm that 35x12.5x20 on 20x9 20mm offset fit with no trimming or rubbing with a 2.5" level.

Pretty great pics if you ask me.
 
think this would work with stock rims?
"would work" as opposed to is recommended. So our stock rims are 7.5" (or 7") wide. I'm not aware of any 12.5" tire that recommends a wheel size less than 8.5"

That said, I think Nitto has a 35X11.5 which may fit our stock wheels

Those look a quite a bit smaller than the 35x12.5 or maybe could just be the lighting?
 
I have 27570R18 with a 1mm offset that rub full lock with a BDS level on my 20 Lariat
