Just had these mounted on our 2004 SMB 4x4 (quigley conversion). 295/65/18 E rated Duratracs on Fuel Trophy wheels (black with anthracite rings). Some rubbing at full lock on the rear of the front fenderwells. Going to do some trimming tonight and fix that.

Almost purchased the same wheels a while back - thought they looked really sharp...now i'm questioning my selection. Yours look great!

Thanks Man! I really like them. My wife actually picked them out. She's pretty much letting me setup the van, but she wanted to pick out the wheels. I'm a lucky man to have a woman with such taste! We wanted some contrast on the wheels, but no chrome or machined finish. These fit the bill perfectly.

I'm new to the forum and I see this is an old thread, but I was looking at ordering this kit for my 2009 E-350. Any thoughts on it? E350 2WD SUSPENSION LIFT KIT 2 INCH - Performance Sales I'm wanting to add larger tires and not give up any ride-quality. Any recommendation on tire sizes with the lift and stock wheels?

I went to Les Schwab and had them mount a tire to test. They have always taken good care of me in the past and I have built a good relationship with their management team. They are not the cheapest, but their prices are not set in stone either. I was able to negotiate the price down quite significantly with my set up.

With the larger tires on my vehicle, I had a very noticeable improvement in ride quality from the stock tires. Not sure if that helps ya, but maybe gives ya an idea or two.

Thank you GAR for the info. I was hoping someone may have the PerfSo kit and would chime in. This is what I'm leaning towards: E250 E350 2WD SUSPENSION LIFT KIT 2 INCH - Performance Sales and I think you're spot on about fitting one tire before committing to the size tire choice. Thanks for that idea!
