I just put 35's on my 2012 with 3.21s. Honestly.. It's really not that bad. Way better than my 07 with 4.10s. I haven't got my procal yet, and haven't burned a whole tank of gas since I got them installed. My computer is showing 15 mpg. No idea if it is accurate. I'm going the spare, but only temporary. I will be ordering a bumper and tire carrier soon.

Is there any problems with fitting a 35" tire on a stock 18" rim that I've been told is only 7" wide by the tire dealer in town. He says I need 9" wide rims ? Do I really ?

No problems, that's only for liability reasons since it's a smaller width than what's recommended. You may have to check out a few shops.

Actually it's 7.5" wide and the only issue is to make sure you have the right amount of air pressure in the tires so that they have a flat contact patch with the road, and wear good. Do a chalk test to get it right.
