What's important for fitting is to make correct choices on the wheels.
You need to get the correct backspace number. That determines where the tire sits.

You want to stay near the factory number of 5.75". Any more, you'll rub on the brake calipers or A-arm. Any less and you will stick out more and have rubbing issues on the fenders.
I installed Fuel 17 x9 inch wheels and were available with stock backspace for 12.50/35,s . works perfect and no rub and dont hang way out

Well to update I did end up buying the Ballistic Bullets. they are 18" with a 4.5 backspacing. And I am going to wrap them with Nitto Terra Grapplers, as Mastercraft didnt have the size i was looking for 295/70/18. Im getting my tires tuesday, and hope to have them installed by the end of the week. If i can figure out how to upload a pic from my phone i will. thanks everyone for the tips and help.
