2007 F350 Lariat 4x4 pkg with 2.5 front/1in rear kit. Looking at Nitto TG 285/75/17 on factory wheels.
I'm looking at larger tires and trying to avoid large spacers? Based on my calculations the new tires would be 1/4in apart at the bottom where the tire bulges out near the ground.....with a load it may get even closer.....and this is with a 1/2 spacer but that would leave the lug-nuts flush with the end of the studs and 1/8 from the last threads (the threads stop short of the end of the bolts)
The other option is 2in spacers that have additional bolts for the outer tire to bolt to. These would leave the tire sticking outside the wheel well 2.5 inches and I'm hoping to avoid that.
Thanks,
