i just got a set of 225/75r16 tires (29.29" tall) and that is about as big as i could see going. i have about 3/16" of clearance at the 7/8's steering lock with the pinch seam folded over and a screw holding the fender liner as close as possible to the sheet metal. that is with 1" spacers and no lift. if flexed out, it looks like it will rub the fender liner a bit higher up though. the lift kit wont help with tire clearance much because of how the rear of the front wheel well is pretty much vertical.QUESTION: With a Rough Country 2" Lift/Level, can I fit anything bigger than 235/55/18 on my Latitude? I think 28.5" is safe height for no rubbing in a non-lifted... BUT the 2" if lift doesn't mean I can squeeze that much more in there, correct?
235/65/18 is 30" on the dot. Would that definitely be too big? Anyone have a list?
Hey!! Awesome, thank you for all that! Seemed like 28.5" was the absolute safest and teetering on 29" was the danger zone just from what people had in their photos. I did read about a little about the wheel well and how anything short of a major lift isnt going to help. Which is lame haha considered 30mm spacers but I know next to absolutely NOTHING about spacers/offsets and still edumacating myself on them. Appreciate you taking the time to share your setup! 💪💪💪💪i just got a set of 225/75r16 tires (29.29" tall) and that is about as big as i could see going. i have about 3/16" of clearance at the 7/8's steering lock with the pinch seam folded over and a screw holding the fender liner as close as possible to the sheet metal. that is with 1" spacers and no lift. if flexed out, it looks like it will rub the fender liner a bit higher up though. the lift kit wont help with tire clearance much because of how the rear of the front wheel well is pretty much vertical.
Please take the time to introduce yourself. Use the community search engine. You will find a thread under new members.I just put 235/60 on with new km708 17 x 7.5. So far no rubbing whatsoever. I am worried when i actually load it up with camping gear that the fender to tire clearance will be almost nonexistent. It does look nice though dontcha think?
Yeah we all know that feeling of being so-so.Some pics before and after I was not really feeling well so pics are so so
