Tire Size

Will a 33" (305/55/20) Nitto Terra Grappler fit on a 2007 4X4 Lariat F150 WITHOUT leveling kit or lift kit?

I found a good deal on some 20" Chrome XD Spy's with the 305/55/20 Terra Grapplers with TPMS sensors for $1000. The tires have 10k miles on them and wheels are in perfect conditon.

These are coming off of a stock 2009 F150. Will the TPMS and fitment work for my 2007?

Will they fit, yes. Will the TPMS from an 09 work on your truck, no.

They are also the 20x9 with 4.53" bs... is that correct or will they stick out too far?

Not sure of the OE BS, I think 5.5" on the 20s, which are I believe 8.5" wide. Again not sure. If so they would stick out 1.5" more.

Backspacing on OEM 20"s, which are 8.5" wide, is 6.5". The backspacing on 7.5" wide rims is 6". With a 4.53" backspacing on a 9" rim, the centerline of the wheel is going to shift 2.25" outboard from the stock set up. That's way too much, IMO. You may like that look. You might experience some rubbing.

Since the 2009s have the same stock offset, you might want to ask him if he has pictures of the tires and rims on his truck. That should give you a good idea how much they stuck out beyond the fenders.

If I was ready to lift it I would be ok with the wider stance. Lifted trucks with the same stance as stock ( same bs) look like crap. However, non lifted trucks with tires that stick out too far look like crap.
