<div class="bbWrapper">Hello, I am wondering if anyone else has a similar set up as I am now looking at wheels and tires for the Rammer. I have the full Theren King kit with 2.75&quot; front and 1&quot; rear coils, front and rear track bars, front sway bar, rear sway bar drop links and the 2.5 ressi Kings with stage 2 tuning.<br /> <br /> The truck sits just about perfectly level, maybe 1/5 taller i the rear. I&#039;m currently leaning toward going with a set of 18x9 +18 off set wheels and 35/12.50/18 tires. Also looking at 325/65/18 tires if the little extra width fits. I really like the look of 37&quot;s just not sure I want to trim and cut... Any tips and tricks and or been there done that information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">You pretty much have it figured out. 35&#039;s with that offset fit no problem, 37&#039;s will require a little trimming, 325&#039;s will require a little more trimming. CJC offroad has a good video on youtube on exactly how to trim it.<br /> <br /> .</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Im running 37x12.50s on stock suspension with +18mm offset wheels and had VERY little trimming of the fender liner to eliminate rub. 35s or 325/65 should have no issues with a +18mm offset wheel.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;m running 325/65/18&#039;s with +18mm offset. They didn&#039;t rub with stock suspension. I installed the full Thuren suspension and they don&#039;t come close to rubbing even when I&#039;m off-road. the great thing about this Tire/wheel setup is I can go thru most automatic car washes without issue.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I don’t know if you plan to do any off-roading, but if so you might want to pick up some rear shock shields. Kicked up stones will tear up the pretty finish on those shock bodies pretty quick. The big Foxes on my Jeep are pretty beat up after only 20k miles. Both Thuren and Carli sell some.</div>

They’re a PITA to put on unless you take tires off or have a right angle screwdriver.</div>
