Can you put 35's on a Ford Tremor??

- Today we try to answer some questions about 35 inch tires on our Ford Tremor. I'm running the Nitto Recon Grapplers at 35/12.50/r18 Several people have put 35's under their trucks and have no rubbing issues. About the same amount of people have had issues rubbing. Aftermarket wheels (if you get the right ones) will work and not rub but if your offset is wrong then your tires will rub. I think I may have more questions than answers on today's episode so let's start the conversation about off road tires and more importantly what tires rub and which ones don't. Unless you just want to remove the crash bars then you can put whatever you want on it!

Thanks for checking it out!
I’m running Toyo Open Country R/T Trail tires in 295/70R18 on stock Tremor 18” wheels. Tire diameter is 34.3” and width is 11.8” per the Toyo website. I also have a 2.5” Pro Comp level kit and there is no rub and have not cut the crash bars or trimmed anything. One comment on the other tire sizes discussed, namely the 305/70R18 and the 35x12.5R18. The Nitto website specifies a minimum wheel width of 8.0” for the former and 8.5” for the latter. The stock Tremor wheel is 7.5”, so both these tires are not recommended for the stock wheel. The 295/70R18 has a minimum wheel width of 7.5” and is the widest tire recommended for the stock wheel.
Good info! So far I've been on them for about 25k no issues on smaller rim. But yes some have raised concerns. Thanks for commenting!
You can do 35s without a level and with crash bars.
You just have to do it with an 11.5” wide tire, not a 12.5” wide and using stock wheels.
You just have to do it via tires in size 285/75r18 or 35x11.5x18.
And 295/70r18 fits with totally stock non tremors btw. Gen 14 and 13.
Thx for this comment. Quirky Question, do you need to update the speedometer or not needed because the wheel/rim is stock? Thx. Cheers.
Yes, but I never did mine. It's only 1 to 2 mph slower. So 70 is 71 ish
Yes sir you can. I have 35’s on mine. I put a 2.5 level kit and I think it looks amazing.
No doubt! Just makes the truck even that more aggressive !
A spacer kit?
I don't use spacers on mine. They fit but snug.
@@TremorTrails dang I literally just ordered the spacer kit from halolift 2.5 one. I want it purely for aesthetic purposes. It just a pavement Princess with occasional weekend beach or camping trip. I called the store and said it should work. 🤷🏽♂️🙏🏽
@ohalexosti63 did u have to put on upper control arms on it? Or just the spacers. Cuz
I have a 23 Tremor with level kit (dealer installed) and it makes popping noise when it is stressed on the front end.
The creating a data base idea is a very good one, gathering hopefully accurate comments on what works and what doesn't with other tire wheel combinations and lifts. Hehehe, love the beginning of the video. Keep that Tremor and those cameras rolling...and definitely more cowbell.
I just added 295x70x18 tires on fuel Maverick with a +20 offset and works awesome
2022 Tremor 402A with rough country m1 strut leveling kit. Im running Toyo Open Country R/T 35/12.5/17 on Black Rhino Armory wheels with a +6mm offset. I had to trim a tiny little piece of plastic near the rear on the tire with a box cutter. Under normal driving, going up driveways, backing out etc. the crash bars are not a problem. They are really close to hitting at 22 degrees of wheel turn so would need some hammer love or cut out before any trails.
Thanks!
Hey just saw this video! Im running a raptor size tire (315/70 r17). 2.5 Level up front, falken wildpeaks, 25 offset 8.5 width rim and SPC adjustable UCA. Almost zero rubbing no trimming. Every once in a while i get a very minor rub almost not worth mentioning.
Nitto just released a recon grappler in 295/70r18 in a SL load rating @51lbs . I’ll be ordering those with stock wheels and leveling kit and taking almost no hit on mpg.
That sounds like a great fit! Good to know. I might look at those next.
This is exactly what I came here for. Thank you both (for the video and the comment).
Did you do it? Happy with the Recon SL?
I haven't even thought about tires yet (although I'm not a big fan of the Generals that came on it). I'll give them a chance though. I got my truck last month and I'm just amazed I'm getting 19 mpg with the Coyote!! I haven't really taken the truck "off road" yet because it is new, and I have 2 other 4x4 trucks (and an older jeep). Then again, my driveway is somewhat offroad for some vehicles. Peace, Love!!
I did a video on the Generals. I still stand by it! I never had 1 issue with them. I personally think they're a pretty good tire. Thanks for watching 👀
2023 Tremor with Fox 2.0 kit. clears the 2022 for raptor wheel and tire combo ... Not rubbing at all
My 2023 F350 super duty platinum Tremor I ordered comes with 35’s
Way bigger truck. I bet that thing is gonna look like a beast! I'm kinda jealous!
level with 37s
Thanks for the video! I have an XLT but I was able to pick up a set of the tremor wheels and tires with 40 miles on them from a buddy who couldn’t wait to throw 20s with a huge negative offset on his brand new tremor (yeah we all just winced at that one)… also just put the fox 2.0 set up on… gonna put some miles on the grabbers before I replace them… probably will go 295/70… but undecided on the recon grapplers or the ridge grapplers… I think the ridge grapplers look much better and I had a set on my Colorado ZR2 and I loved em… like the idea of the recon grapplers and the warranty and snow flake rating as well… got some time though…
The Ridge are louder and older technology from my understanding. The recon was their new take on the ridge but it sucks that they don't have the snowflake rating. As far as the Generals. I freaking loved mine! I put them through hell and they held great.
I just bought my 22 private with less than 500 miles and a 2.5 King Coilovers and 2.5 Piggy backs out back and running 285/75R18 on 18x9 Fuel Wheels and I have slight rubbing on crash bars which I’m having cut out tomorrow. I’ll give you a report once its done.
Thanks George!
It’s pretty simple..
As you widen the tire the point as which it will rub things occurs at different places on the truck. So even a tire with like height but different widths will rub (or not rub) in different areas.. The same could be said for different wheel offsets. Before I adjusted my UCA out like the OP did I would of gotten a small wheel spacer. No way is that alignment correct with all of the added Camber by moving the wheel away from the UCA.
I'll try to find the numbers. Alignment is great and not out of wack with added camber. Only a very small amount of camber was added. Thanks for watching 👀
Can you push the crash bars apart to get sufficient size?
Most everyone cuts or removes them.
On my setup I’m running Fuel Rebel 20inch +18 offset with 285/65r20 Falken Wildpeaks AT3. I have a Readylift Tremor specific 3 inch level with crash bars intact. There is no rubbing with this setup.
Great info thanks!
Stock wheels. 2.5 RC level kit. Mickey Thompson 35x12.5x18. Zero rub so far on and off road. No trimming.
If you remember come back and let me know how the tires hold up. I've heard a few guys starting to run them.
How is the mpg and power with those? They weigh like 75 lbs
@andrewc1036 power is fine mpg is terrible. 13 highway
Dis the 35s effect your speedometer??
Yes by about 3mph over 60. Use Forscan to program new tire size.
Ok, why do guys want to go to a 35" vs. the stock 33's? Where is the benefit? This' coming from someone who's not going to do much modifying to my Tremor. Thanks
It gives you another inch or 2 of clearance out on trails. That was my main reason.
Bc 33’s look too small on these trucks. Seems almost all trucks have stock tires 1-2 sizes too small.
@@JGoodZX6Rtires are often smaller to meet EPA requirements
Thinking about putting stock Raptor wheels and tires - K02 35's (brand new take offs) on my Tremor. I have a 2" level kit on it, just the spacer. Seen some forums that say this will work with absolutely no rubbing. Anyone have any experience with this?
Hopefully someone knows. I unfortunately have no experience with the takeoffs.
Awesome info. Quick question... is this the best one you referred to in the vlog. 295/70R18 116S?
Yes, IMHO it's the best. I'm running a wider tire currently and they are eating up fuel mileage for little gain. Also the 295's should fit better on the stock wheels.
with the crash bars gone can you go to a 37?
I personally have no experience with the 37"s But I did see awhile back a couple guys get 37's under the truck. I believe they moved down a wheel size to like a 15. If you plan on going off road, I would think you would have to do some serious cutting to get them to fit and not smash into wheel wells and cross members.
there is no way you are fitting a 15 inch wheel over the brakes@@TremorTrails

Hope I can get a tremor one day, I farm and love to off-road and camp so this truck would work great. Hope the 1st gen taco holds for a while
It's a really good platform! I've had it for 1 year as of Sunday.
How's the tremor running? Any problems?
She's running great. Only issues I've had was the 2 recalls for the screen and back up assist. Both where fixed in a day for free.
Question, are your offset for Tremor rims at +34? Do you have a pic of the inside of your factory rim stamp? Trying to understand differences between factory Tremor rim and standard F150 rim with +44offset. The inside stamp will show max load and offset numbers.
I was told the Tremors are +34, regular F150's are +44. I was just asking this question yesterday to a friend. He's got a set of rims at his shop, he's gonna snap a picture.
@@TremorTrails Great Info, thanks. Hope to see the pic in future video. Also, your rims are 7.5wide? They are 18 x 7.5 as I understand it. Just wanted to confirm.
I'm not 100% on that. I'll definitely let you know when I find out!
@@Chris-ut6eq just saw pictures yes +34 18x7.5
@@TremorTrails Thanks for the update! Can you confirm the load capacity of the rims? guessing its somewhere between 2050-2250, but cant find a tremor inside rim pic anywhere online.
I like the Tremor rims, but I've ordered an HDPP package on FX4 F150 and curious on Tremor rim ratings as I like the look, but need the know the max payload.
The +34 offset explains the marketing speak about wider stance. I don't think the standard F150 could fit your 12.5wide tires without your offset or lower. Probably need an offset nearer to +20 or less.
Does your Tremor have BlueCruise? If you do, did leveling it affect the system or how it behaves on the highway?
Doesn't effect anything. I use lane assist all the time in cruise control. Everything works as normal. I don't personally have blue cruise but my friends do and have the same setup. Lifting the truck a couple inches isn't going to effect sensors.
My 402A tremor does not have blue cruise.
Not a fan of Nitto, had G2's and ridge grapplers on my last F150. How are the 35's Recons as far as performance loss? being such a heavy tire 70+lbs. When my Generals wear out I will likely go with 295/70/18. Great review. Love my tremor and 2.5" leveled made such a huge difference in "looks"
I love them so far. We're actually in Mojave as I type this. I did 145 miles in last 2 days all on trails. Ride is great, they are gripping well. So far no complaints on these tires. This is my first set of Nitto. I LOVED my Generals. Can't figure out why guys are always bashing them? Thanks for watching!
@@TremorTrails Thanks, on my last F150 before I picked up my 22-Tremor. I got the General grabbers after trying the Nitto's. I loved the General Tires too. I don't know why people dislike them either. Here in the midwest they were great in all weather and deep snow.
@@marcm8209 I guess that I'm one of the "bashers" but that was with Generals 20 years ago. I had horrible belt separation at about 25K miles. I'm giving the new ones a chance though, no sense wasting a new set of tires. Peace, Love!!
Instead of cutting the crash bar, can't you take those two bolts out and slide it out?
That was my thought as well. But the way the crash bars are in we weren't able to get them loose.
The crash bars are bolted from on top - you have to remove the entire bumper to remove the bolts. Easier to cut the crash bars off as putting the bumper back on and centering it is not a one-person job.
