I WAS PLANNING TO REPLACE MY STOCK WHEEELS 265/70/17 TO A 285/75/17. WILL THESE FIT WITHOUT ANY MAJOR RUBBING? THE TIRE GUY SAID THEY'D FIT WITH NO PROBLEMS. HE SHOWED AN AREA THAT HE MAY NEED TO TRIM, THOUGH. I WAS KIND OF UNSURE OF THE WHOLE THING.

ALSO, WOULD YO GO THIS ROUTE OF JUST REPLACE THE STOCK WHEELS WITH SOME 33X10'S 16.5's? I HAVE A FORD F-150, 4X4, 5.4L FLARESIDE. I ALSO DO NOT WISH TO SPEND ANY MORE $$$ ON A LIFT.

 

HIT + RUN,

Where did you find 285/75/17's ???

-kindest regards

------------------
1999 F150 4x4, wedgewood blue, 5.4l auto, Manick brush guard, Duraliner, KC Hilites, surf rod holders, tinted windows, K&N air filter without airbox, Velocity air intake tube, Midas Performance muffler with dual pipes, toolbox, Uniden CB with whip and now, enjoying a new reprieve on life with a 2000 series 5.4L (swapped engine due to Piston Slap). Will be Superchipped shortly...

 

I didn't think they made that size.
Must be new.
I would like to know who makes them though.

 

285s will fit fine on a 4WD. Never heard of the R17s though.
