I am looking at new wheels,the Pro Comp 35" All Terrain on the Extreme Alloy Wheel looks like it will work for my use,assuming they dont rub.Any one here running this set up with a 2" leveling kit? Thanks.Mark.

I have 35x12.5-17 Pro-Comp Xtterain's with a 2" Pro-comp leveling kit. There's no rubbing and they look great.

How many miles do you have on them? How's the noise and wear? Thanks.

I have about 16,000 miles on them so far and think I'll get another 12,000-15,000 miles. They are actually pretty quiet and have good traction.

Any chance in getting a picture? The wheels look great on the website but I wonder how much they stick out.

What offset are you guys running on these wheels that they don't rub the control arms on a full lock turn? My 35x12.50's rub the control arms just a tiny bit with a full lock turn. I added 1/4" wheel spacers and they still just barely rub the tiniest bit. I cannot feel it but the marks on the control arm show a little clean spot where the tire it touching them on the full lock turn.

If I have my way I would like to have 36X14.50's tires in the future. I will need 9" wide wheels and likely a 5" offset. Those are gonna stick out a bit but I think I will need the 5" offset to prevent the rubbing.

What do you think? Another option is 37 X13.50 BFG tires. On the same Wheels they might be a better fit? I have a 4" lift with tons of room to fit them, and 4:10 ratios to keep the power band correct.

sweet lookin truck trextoo! You don't have a lift kit right? is the lift you spoke of the 2" level kit only? 35" 'ers with no rubbing? nice ride... check out my thread and why I've taken a sudden interest in getting a little more traction. How do you like them off road?
