I was just wondering if anyone had pics of their trucks with bigger tires on the stock Lariat 18" wheels? I see quite a few running larger ones on the stock magnetic 17s or optional machined 18s, but havent seen many on the stock Lariat 18s. Thanks in advance.

Looks good. I am thinking 2.5" level kit with 275/70R18s on the stock wheels. No plans for a spacer.

I don’t personally know from experience, but I’ve done quite a bit of reading. It seems that 275s are the widest you can go without a spacer. Almost anyone running a 285+ is running at least 1/4 wheel spacers In the front.

I'm planning on keeping my OEM 18"s too but they are the machined style. If I go with a 2.5" level kit, I'm assuming 275/70 tires will fit these wheels too.

Curious if anyone has a similar set up.

There is a truck on a local lot with a 2.5" RC leveling kit and 275/70R18s on the stock machined 18s.

I did not want to have to cut any crash bars but wanted a bigger tire. I went with Falken Wildpeaks and went with 265/70 R18. I know, I know, I am a chickenSh*t... But did not want to modify anything or have any rubbing.

Here is my Truck with the STX package. 18” wheels. I’m running 275/65R18 with fox 2.0 coil overs (brought it up only 1”ish). I’m running bora 1” spacers. I had to remove my crash bars and the front air dam things in front of the wheels. I just unbolted the crash bars so I can reinstall if needed. You do have to do a partial disassembly with the front bumper to get them to slide out otherwise it’s just 2 bolts on each side.
