you have to have big enough gears to run the tire size. to run 33's you will need 4.10s 3.73s to run 31's

without the right gears, you will lose gas milage, and its hard on the drive tran. your truck will be grunting to take off, and lose speed

but, other than that, 32's should fit under a stock f-150 no problem.

Pre 92 4x4s will only rub a little at full lock with 33's. 92+ will rub the same but will need to also shim the front bumper out a little bit to clear.

Can't tell ya if your a 4x2.

No, either 31s or 33s.

Heres the Lariat with 31s currently. 33s are ordered and will be mounted when I finally pick my rims that I like.



Just shy of 31s on the 88. Lots a room left.

im running 32x11.50x15's on my92 f150 with 3.55 gears and it doesnt do bad, but they sure rub when im trying to turn,thought about doing some wheel spacers or something, but with a 3" lift, they already look to small

Hello 92f150302,

They only rub on the radius arms? do you have plenty of room between the bumper and tire? I would love to see a pic if you have one. Thanks jrpotts01
