GEN 1 Tire Guru Sizing Assistance

[Raptized]

I am currently running Patriot tires MT 35x12.50 R20 with aftermarket wheels with no issues other than tires are junk. Decided to go with Nitto Ridge Grapplers.

Truck is Mid perch- with stock suspension. Truck has 75k miles. 80 percent of my driving is street 20 percent trails/dirt roads. I will measure my offset this weekend, but it looks like I either have a plus one or plus 20 offset. The truck had 1.5" wheel spacers on it when I bought it and I still have them installed. Here is the wheel spec sheet:

Fuel Off-Road D552 Trophy Matte Gunmetal Black Ring - PowerHouse Wheels & Tires

Buy Fuel Off-Road D552 Trophy Matte Gunmetal Black Ring wheels. The Fuel Offroad Wheels rims starts at $243.00. Sizes 17"-20" / Width 8.5"-10" / 5-Lug, 6-Lug / Matte Black / Gunmetal Ring

The spec on the 35 Patriots is 12.5 sidewall to sidewall, 34.8 overall diameter.

The spec on the 35 Grapplers is 12.52 sidewall to sidewall, 34.76 overall diameter.

The spec on the 37 Grapplers is 12.52 sidewall to sidewall, 36.77 overall diameter.

I did wiz1500's trim, cut and tuck mod a few years ago for 37's but went back with 35's. I am toying with the idea of 37's again but am nervous to pull the trigger due to improper fitment or massive rubbing. Anyone got any help in this subject area? Thanks yall!

Tons of threads on this topic. You have been here long enough to know where the search function is.

Get rid of those wheel spacers. Go back to 17s. Zero offset will put you flush with the fenders.

I am looking for info specific to my setup. I have already fielded through countless droves of this tire size debate, needed modifications and "show me pictures of your setup". Going back to 17-inch wheels is currently off the table. Thanks for the reply!

ridge grapplers are junk

Can't be worse than what I have been running. I ripped a whole section of tread right off the tire.

I have to agree. When new, they ride nice, quiet, and decent in rain. I’m down about half tread and drove through some light rain this weekend and those ******* hydroplaned on just about every groove “puddle” in the road. That was at about 50mph in a 70 zone road. Will be “relocating” them shortly.

Never mind. I have no complaints about my ridge grappler. Well I guess I will. If you are looking for info specific to your set up none of us are running your set up. You are. Good luck.
