Default Wheels and Tires

Yeah, so I have a 2004 2500 4x4. I am about to buy some wheels and tires, and I need some help. I am looking at buying some 18 inch Moto Metal 951, and wrapping them with a 325/60/18 Nitto Terra Grappler? What i need to know is if there is going to be some rubbing? Because I have talked to a few people, and they said it might rub in the front and then other people who said there should not be any problem what so ever, so if anybody knows it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Great choice on the rims! That's the same thing that I have ordered! Anyway, I'm not sure about the 2500, but the 1500, you can't put but 33s on it without rubbing. However i believe that the 2500s sit up a little bit higher. But even if it does rub, I'm pretty sure you can just put a leveling kit on it and be ok. Let me know how it turns out!

thats false sorry bud. I have 33" firestone destination m/t's on my 1500 and they look tiny, never had them rub at all, id be able to fit 35's on mine before it would even rub a little bit. So im pretty sure on the 2500 you will have lots of room for those tires. If anything u will need to crank your torsion bars in the front a bit to level it out.

You'd probably better check before you put 35s on a 1500 without even leveling it, you might not have as much clearance as you think! Everybody I've talked to says 33s are the limit, level it and you can go with 35s
