check out hankook mt rt03 tires. great on road and off.

 

I have a 2004 f150 lariat 2wd with a 2.5 hell bent steel leveling kit, I was wonder what is the biggest tire size I could have without any rubbing or doing any cutting?

thanks

 

I have 33x12.5s on my un-leveled 4wd. The 12.5 width looks great, the 33" size looks stock... 34" - 35" on a leveled 4wd.

 

I know old thread, but worth replying to...

To answer the OPs post, it all depends on if the truck is 2wd or 4wd. But generally speaking, depending on the tire, on an otherwise stock 4x4 with a 2.5" leveling kit, and OEM rims, you can fit almost any 35x12.50 without any rubbing, there are some distinct exceptions however, and those are the tires with the really, I mean REALLY knobby side lugs. Mud Grapplers spring to mind...

I have an otherwise stock suspension '04 4x4 with an Autospring 2.5" leveling kit, Pro Comp 17x9 rims with 4.75" backspacing, and 35x12.50/17 Trail Digger MTs. I initially had some minor rubbing, but was able to let the rubbing mark my plastic inner fender, and show me where to take the dremel to it... There is also a slight clearancing that needed to be done via hammer to the inside of the fender well, just easing the panel in a shave. Nothing that could be noticed though. So far, been dead on. Time for new tires because I got stupid and failed to rotate or align, but that's my stupidity...

 

 

thats rim size 20? And width of tire?
will it wrk for 2013 fx2 with 2.5 leveling kit ?

 

Might do it. Yes, those are 20" wheels and they came on the trucks with 275/55-20 tires from Ford. I knew BFG offered a 275/60-20 too, lot of guys run them too. I've considered but did not buy 305/55-20s before as the diameter seemed too tall for my FX4 lowered to FX2 height as I did not want to risk fender rubbing or cutting.
I love the looks of the BFG tires ... but they ain't cheep.

275/65-20s are 34" OD, 10.9" section width, and have a 9.2" tread width and are rated at 3,750 lbs at 80 psi.

275/60-20s are 32.9" OD,10.9" section width, and have a 9.0" tread width and are rated at 3,000 lbs at 65 psi.

275/55-20s are 31.9" OD, 11.1" section width, and have a 9.6" tread width and are rated at 2,680 lbs at 65 psi.

305/55-20s are 33.2" OD, 12.4" section width, and have a 10.2" tread width and are rated at 3,195 lbs at 65 psi.

In the end, I bought the same Pirelli 275/55-20 as come on the truck. I wanted to go with a 305/50-20 but it wasn't shown for either Pirelli or BFGoodrich. Here they are in Cooper though:
305/50-20s are 32.1" OD, 12.4" section width, and have a unlisted tread width and are rated at 3,086 lbs at 50 psi.

 

I have a 2004 2wd that is stock besides a 2.5 inch motofab leveling kit and 35s (not sure on the exact dimensions of tires other than they are 35s) and it rubs a pretty good bit I’m just wondering what exactly should I trim to fix this? any pictures would be very much appreciated.
