I’m curious if anyone is running 325/60/R18’s on their stock lifted trail boss with an additional 2 inch front lift only, along with wheel spacers. If you are, post your pics, I’d like to see the stance! Thank you in advance!
 
It's not a popular size from what

I've seen on this Forum. It's a pretty wide tire and when you add spacers, it pushes the wheel out further which causes them to intrude into the fender wells even more. It's less than an inch taller than the stock tire so a lift is really not a factor.
I have a ReadyLift 2in level kit and I'm running 295/70s on stock 18s with 1.5in spacers. I had to trim the front mud flaps and push / pull in the the inner fender liner.

That looks nice! Yeah, I’m no longer doing the 325’s. The shop recommends a 285/75/18 but Im hoping the 295/70/18’s will fit instead cause it’s not as tall but gives a little bit for width. I was thinking spacers helped accomodate bigger wheels but you’re saying it doesn’t. I dont mind doing an additional 2 inch ready lift, but dont wanna get into trimming etc
 
It really depends on what you are wanting to do and sacrifice. I am looking at full 37" tires and have decided on the 315/70R/18 just to get a hair bigger than 35" and these are generally about 36". I figure I can go to slightly bigger than 36 without rubbing. I also run a two inch spacer on each wheel for the stance and look I want. Again, its all about sacrifice and what you are looking for your vehicle. Called play time and $!

I just want a wider tire with a little poke but without having to trim or cut anything. Supposedly, the 295/70/R18’s on my stock wheels will work, but the shop is trying to sell me on needing a 2 inch front lift, and I don’t know if I need that or not. I’d hate to have to lift it if I don’t need to. I’d like spacers as well for more poke , but was told if I did spacers with those tires, it would most likely require trimming/cutting

Did you add spacers? If so what size and did you have to trim. I am running 295/70/18 wth stock rims no rub. I would like to add 1.5 or 2.0 in spacers for the wider stance.
 
if you add 1.5in spacers it will rub on the mud flap and the fender liner. Simple to trim the mud flap, remove the metal bracket, and pull in the fender liner.

I haven’t done anything yet, still running the stock 275/65/18’s. I didnt wanna buy 4 new tires and have them put on, to be told they don’t fit.

Thanks Jmzvet,
I just ordered some Bora 1.5 inch spacers.
 
Not exactly the info you are looking for but I’d figure I’d chime in because of width and spacers.

I’ve got the 2” ready lift in the front as well as 2”spacers I put 35-12.5-20 and it rubs like all get out.

Looks great though!
 
285/75r18 Duratracs. No lift. No spacers. Very slight rub on inner back corner of fender liner while at full lock and reversing. That will be fixed. I have 1/2" spacers and a 2" leveling kit waiting to be installed once I have a little more time and the outside temps get a bit cooler. Since the pic was taken I have deleted the mud flaps.
