I have 305/40/22 and have plenty of clearance. the 45's i think are as close to stock as you can get.

 

[galiath05]

you will have plenty of room. thats the size i have

 

[xxxxxxxxxPAtitan56]

oh great! I love both of your wheels. nice big and good styles!

Super terrific

thanks, ordering now.

I hope the falkens I got will last. I will be swapping off the new wheels for the old ones for winter. The firestone destinations barely lasted 15,000 miles. I am on the wear bars. PA roads use Superpave which has more agrregate and less oil. I think that doubles the wear life on our tires. When I hear people get 30,000 miles, I almost cry because people never get that here!

I will post a pic when I put them on.

You will be good to go! I have no problems with my 305/45R22's.

I have a set of 24" Venti Chrome Wheels i am trying to sell off my 06 Titan

 

[who-dat]

falkens are amazing tires at such a great price.

I just got these things. look great. tires are really wide. How about acceration.? did you end up slower with a 305 45- series? I would assume YES, because of more contact rubber to the road. But the handling will be better around corners even with the leveling in front.

Gotta fix my struts due to the shop not installing the Rubbers in the struts causing me to redo the whole setup. so the wheels are not on yet.

Mine handle pretty good for such a big tire! Grip is awesome! They will probably slow you down a little though...

What part didn't they install?

 

[galiath05]

i noticed the extra wieght of the bigger wheels but it wasnt to bad

 

[yuroshek]

ugh this is killing me, Im on the bubble between 305/45/22's or going with some meatier tires and going with 20s and 33's...

I have 26s on mine so 22s will fit perfect with 40s.

The 305/45/22's are great because you get the great styling of the 22", plus you get a little bit extra of a sidewall with the 45 series tires. IMO, 40 series tires are scary on a truck. Just not enough rubber between the rim & the road!

 

[beason]

i have the 40's on mine, as that is what was on there when i got the rims. your right, im kinda sweating the big bumps.

 

[gweasel77]

My rim/tire combo is almost exactly the same height as the OEM setup, so it worked out great for my T.

 

[galiath05]

Agreed. I wanted a meatier tire so I went with the 45 series tire. They are almost the same hight as the oem tires

 

[beason]

when i get new tires they will be 45's. the rims came with 40's.
