Hey guys...I know it may be too soon to ask but any idea if I can run 35” tires on 18” rims on a ‘21 Yukon Denali?

Here in the UAE we have hardly 4 months of winter and we try to make most of it by doing out-doorsy stuff like dune driving and so on. Looking to do a winter set up and keep the stock wheels and tires for the remaining 8 months of the year...so any ideas if 35” if the tires would clear the struts, the suspensions and wheel wells? and if anyone’s done it?? Would like to see pictures please. Doesn’t have to be a Denali. Can be any trim on a ‘21 Yukon.

Theres not a lot of room on these new ones and with the new knuckle locating the Upper A arm higher you're limited on the tire width. You can use spacers but then that creates another issue for the front and back of the fender. Might be able to get away with a skinny 34 with a 2" level kit but not sure what other supporting mods you would need to make that happen.

On another note I follow some UAE accounts on instagram and it looks like a lot of the regular tahoes and suburbans get the z71/at4 front bumper. Pretty cool, wish they would do that here.

I would love to see pictures? I have not seen any 2021s with 35’s and a 2.5” level.
Sorry no pictures, i was at a offroad shop and they installed kings 2.5 shocks and 35" toyos on it and were trimming the wheel wells it was a suburban to be exact.

Ok thanks. Would love to know how much they had to trim. Do you know if they were 12.50s? I’ve been researching for months. Have talked to a guy that is running 295/55/22s with a 3.5” RC lift and still had to trim a good bit.

yeah i did take a quick peek toyo open country 35sx12.50 18 inch methods i think on 0 offset, there seems to be a lot of trimming up front, the bumper was cut on a slight angle and some modifcations on the front rear inner fender.
