    So, can you run 305/65 r18 on stock trd pro wheels and setup with no rub?

    Probably not - it depends on the actual tire dimension (not just the nominal one). Also tire pressure, alignment, etc. More than likely you will rub on either the UCA or front sway bar.

    Real world example: I run a 295/70/r18 Mickey Baja Boss AT. It's a very wide tire for its size/specs (also a heavy one but that's not important here). Spec sheet says 11.7" width but I bet it's almost 12". I rub slightly on the front sway bar at full lock.

    275/70/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my 2021 Pro. Never had an issue with rubbing. People forget that when you increase tire size you lose some of the travel in the suspension. Bigger is not always better. My tires are the same width as stock but are a 1/2” taller. It’s as close to stock as I can get without compromising the suspension.

    Do you run wheel spacers? I just ordered these tires for me 2021 Platinum that I will pairing with Toytec 2.0 Boss Lift. Wondering how significant a rub at the sway bar is. Will be running the TRD sway bar up front as well, not sure if the dimensions on that are different.

    No spacers. I have a TRD OffRoad, unsure if there's a different dimension aspect to it. I forgot to mention I'm running Fox 2.0 adjustable coilovers set at 2" of lift up front too.

    I’m running Nitto Ridge Grapplers 285/70/R18s on my stock TRD Pro. No rubs whatsoever!

    2021 Pro!! Nitto’s Tyger blades, Arc audio!
    I’m running the same and no rub issues. But I’m keeping same size tire and adding the westcott lift. Maybe down the road I will go bigger but for now they will do. Looks good!!

    How much ride difference did you notice between these and the stock tires on paved roads? Are these a lot rougher? I just bought the FOX suspension and 18 inch wheels for my Platinum because it rides like a brick with my current setup. I'm in the market for tires now, but want to avoid anything that severely degrades the ride quality. Thank you.

    I truly love these tires! My initial thought was they would be loud on the highway, but to my surprise, they are not. The fox suspension makes the ride quality of the truck so nice!!! If you go with the same set up i did, Nitro ridge grappler 285/75/18 you will need to remove the front spats (small plastic pieces attached to the bumper) as they will rub in reverse, but after removing, no more rub!! The tire set up makes the truck stance look so much better, and way more aggressive/beefy!!! I get loads of compliments!!
