Tires on Factory Wheels

[12th Man Ag]

So, if I add the Icon 2.5" Leveling Kit, will I be able to add 35x12.5x18 Nitto Terra Grapplers on the factory wheels without rubbing? Hard to find info on this forum for the Tremor, so I thought I would post it here. Thank you!

what really sucks about the new tremor is the wheel width, they put it at a 7" wide versus 8" on most other F150 models, so this limits the width of tires. They should have went to at least an 8" wheel, but strange as to why they didnt. So for an answer to your question of a 12.5" tire, it's gonna bulge out a bit, some installers may not do it, its tough to say.

I've had 35x12.5s Toyos/Nittos on my trucks for a long time, but for the Tremor on stock wheels, Im looking at 285/75/18s...a lot of guys are running 285/70/18s, but without aftermarket wheels I haven't seen anyone run a true 12.5 yet from my searches. The offset puts the stock tire around an inch or inch and half to the upper control arm as is.

I’m cool with 285/75/18’s. But still needs the 2-2.5” level, correct? Thanks for helping me figure this out.

That's correct. I ran a 2" level on my tremor with 285/75/18 F250 Tremor Duratracs with no issues

Because wider tires:
1. Worse MPG
2. Worse in snow.
3. Worse on wet pavememt
