Probably no legitimate tire shop will mount that tire on 18"x8" rims - unless you happen to catch them when the villiage idiot is on duty. To much chance that the customer will be involved in an accident and then sue them for a million smackers for mounting a tire that's too wide for their rims.

It's over 13" wide and about the same diameter as most other 35" tires. The biggest tire Ford offers for your truck is 11" wide and 34.1" diameter. So the diameter might work, but the tire is probably too wide to fit without rubbing.
Not trying to step on any toes or be a smarta** but your not reading my question. I stated that it would be on 18x10 rims (wheels) several times.
