they are suppose to be 35" but a little shorter, and a little over 13" wide. They had the same size tire on there, but it was at a negitive offset and it fit. Not sure what it might have done with a factory 0 offset?

34.6x12.8 is what it should come out to be. Depending on the wheel the 12.8 will be ok, but it is pushing it.

I agree, but my only other choice in the Dune was a 285/60/18. I though I might need a lift on the truck to fit the other tires....so I might have to poney up some more dough!

No prob dude, welcome to DF. Definitely need to start a gallery, I'm kinda anxious to see some rock stars in 18's, I thinkI have only ever seen them in 22's in person. I don't know if you are married, but buying to big of tires is exactly what I should have done, cause thenI would have had a perfectly legitimate excuse, to givethe wife,to buy a lift kit.

You're right, I am married. The guy that sold me the tires and wheels said they might rub and it was pushing it. Then he said, what's the worse that could happen, get a lift kit? lol
