Clearance Question

I am a new member today and I really havent gotten a staright answer from anbody so if anyone has done this or has any comment please let me know. I have a 2003 F-150 Supercrew 4x4 with a 3 inch body lift and 33x12.50 wranglers on it right now. I want to know if I can fit a 35x12.50 on there with only minor rubbing and cutting?

Thanks,
Paul

Heres a pic of it.

Welcome to the forum I had 35s on mine with a 3" body lift but I also had 16X10' wheels with 4.5" backspacing and minimal rubbing, I think you can fit 35s but I`m not sure about the backspacing on the stock wheels, hopefully wandell (the tire and wheel King) will chime in and tell us for sure Nice truck too

Yes, you can fit 35x12.50's using your oem wheels. They are gonna rub the frame slightly at full steering lock. If you go to a 10 inch wide aftermarket wheel like mine, you are gonna have to trim some plastic off the front bumper's lower valance.

that should work fine, i'm running a 35x12.50 on a 3'' bl on my 03 4WD, and I only have rubbing at FULL lock on the frame using the oem wheels. with an aftermarket wheel, you will be ok.
