Old Truck:



New Truck:




Also, the 305/65/18 bfg's fit on my 2011 with no level and I have no rub issues whatsoever. I ordered a leveling kit but not sure I'm going to use it if I don't need it

Long story with the tires. My dad owns a 2010 f150 and my new truck came with the 20" chrome wheels and pirellis (now on his truck). The original plan was to move my black rims and tires to the new truck but those rims wouldn't fit over the new brake calipers so I took his rim's and put my rubber on there and sold the black rims.

Looks great. Glad to hear the 305's fit. I was debating between those and the 285's, but didn't want to level. Any noticable loss of power or mileage?

My truck came off the lot with these tires on it. Other than an overnight test drive I didn't get much of a chance to evaluate performance and mpg with the stock tires. I haven't noticed any negative effects on performance but given the increase in tire size and weight I'm sure there has been some sort of performance decrease.
