Question: How far out would my tires be? And, would the wheels or tires be contacting anything like shocks, tie rod ends, etc. Lastly, would tires that large be safe to use on an 8 inch wide wheel? As I know many 35s recommend 9 inch wheels. There are no issues with my current setup as outlined below.

So I've been google-izng trying to find pictures of the subject and am having trouble getting head on pictures.

I'm not much of a wheel and tire guy. I know about backspace, and offset (I believe Pro-4x are 18x8, 5.5'' backspace, and 23mm offset), and alignment parameters etc, but I have a hard time visualizing it with different setups. I'm trying to see how the subject would look compared to my current setup. I very much like how my current setup looks so I don't want to stray too far from it. My current wheels are 18x9, 5'' backspace, 0 offset.

I'm asking because I may be picking up and refinishing a set of OEMs from a guy I know, either to use myself as a second set or to resell...which will probably depend on my original question.

Any pictures or info would help. Thanks!

There's a link in my sig to my photobucket. Plenty of pics of the titan while I still had it. 2 years of running 35x12.50s on stock Pro4 wheels with no issues. They were wearing fine also before someone brings that up. Plenty of offroad and highway, and city driving also before someone adds that caveat.

On stock Pro4 wheels, 12.50s would stick out about 1" from the fender. Or at least they did on mine before I added 1.5" wheel adaptors.

Nice, thanks for the info man, and I'll check out the pictures.

And that's a sharp Taco! Good to see you're still hanging around with us peasants though. Look forward to seeing the inevitable progress you're going to make on the new rig.

Haha thanks man. I love the taco and there are for sure big things to come. But TT is my home, and I don't plan on leaving

Haha, cheers to that man. :cheers:
