    I'm looking at putting 265/70/18's on and was wondering if they would fit? I have a 2.5" level kit on the front. Thoughts??

    265/25.4=10.43
    10.43*.70=7.3 7.3x2=14.6
    14.6+18=32.6
    So that's roughly a 33X10.50x18
    From everything i've read, anything over a 32" tire will rub without doing some trimming. Considering it's not quite 33" and it's not a real wide tire, you might get away with trimming very little. Or if you don't mind a little rub at full lock or full flex, you might not have to trim at all.
    If you decide to go with that size tire, post some pics and comment about any rub you might have b/c I'm thinking about going to an 18" rim and would like to get the largest tire I can without doing any cutting.
