Spoonman thanks for the link!!!!!!!!!!!I am think about going with that size tires on my 08 titan with leveling kit.
Those tires will most likely be too big with just a leveling kit, but it depends on the offset and bs of your rims. I think a 35x12.50 is the biggest anyone has been able to fit with just a leveling kit.
Do you think they will be too wide or over all diameter too wide?
Both. That tire is 36" tall and almost 13" wide. Most with leveling kits can only fit a 35x12.50 on stock rims and that's with the pinch weld mod. With aftermarket rims unless you get a smaller tire and rims that are the same specs as the stock rims, they're not going to fit.
Right now I have 305/40/22 on my titan right now, and it just look like it has a lot of space left for bigger tires. I have huge big fender gap between the fender well to the top of the tires.

I know it looks like a nice gap, but it's not going to fit unless you do some fender mods. Here's a pic of my truck with a 4" lift on 305/40s while I was waiting for my Swampers to come in.
Here's a pic with the 35x12.50s: and to get them to fit I had to do the Pinch Weld mod, trim my bumper, undo my fender liner and pull it as far back as I could and re attatch, and bend the bottom of my fender back. Now they don't rub at all.
Granted this all depends on the width/offset/bs of your rims, but still a 36" tall and 13" wide tire most likely isn't going to fit.
For some reason the gap between the bottom of fender and back of the bump on my 08 is a lot bigger than yours with 22". What year is your titan?
It's an 06, but they didn't change the fenders on the 08s, they just made the front sit up a tad bit higher than the other years. That's why PRG recommends the 1.3" leveling kit for the 08s instead of the 2".
