I currently run the 38x15.50 Mud Grapplers on 18x10" MKW MK19 wheels. Since I hav ethe 6" lift, I would really like to do 40's, however, the Mud Grapplers' 40's only come on a 22" rim (too big for what I want) and all of the other 40's are either too narrow (under 15.50) or not for my size rim. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Do those 38x15.5x22 rub? What's the offset and backspacing on those wheels?

They are 38x15.50x18 not 22's and no they do not rub at all. The 6" lift gives all the clearance needed. The wheel is a MKW MK19 and in 18x10 size; I do not know what the backspacing is, but the website might say. I do not that the wheels pushed the tires out far enough so that when making a "lock to lock" turn, the inside of the tire does not rub the frame like some with 15.50's have said. Hope this helps!.

And kdio, do you know if anyone makes a 40x15.50 on an 18? I know the Mud Grappler is on a 22.

Best,
