I am about to get new tires. I got BFG all terrain 285/75/16 but i was hoping i could go bigger this time. Would 305's fit? 315? what can i fit in there? I got 99 super cab 4x4.

thanks

305/75R16 or 315/75R16 would fit by cranking the torsion bar up and trimming some plastic on the fender.

 

Also depends on your wheels. 315 ~ 12.5" I would never put a 12.5" tire on a sub-8" wheel, though some do. I doubt your factory wheels are 8". So, unless you are getting new wheels, then I'd say 315s are out, regardless of whether they fit in your wheel wells or not.

Good luck.

 

What size wheels do you have?

 

I'm not really sure what size they are.......which ever ones come on the 4x4 package....

here's a pick of them if any one knows the size of them

could 305s get in there?

 

Those are 16x7's. They are a little narrow for a 305/70-16 (33x12.50). You could easily fit the 305's using those wheels. However, the center portion of the tires tread will probably wear slightly faster than normal, similar to the wear you would get from running too much air. If you are gonna keep those wheels, I'd stick with a 285/75-16. If you plan on getting some 8, 9 or 10 inch wide aftermarket wheels in the near future, I'd go ahead and get the 305's.

 

I have a 2002 4x4 F.150 flareside ext.cab stock suspension and I have Eagle alloy 1219HD rims which are 16x8 and I am running 285 75 16 Cooper Discoverer A/T's now could I fit 305's with out triming or lifting it would be in an A/T or maybe an M/T. Thinking about Firestone Destination M/T's anyone tried these tires?
Thanks



This pic is a bad one to judge space by because I had it backed down it to my ditch on the other side. Had to get out of the way so my Dad could get out of the drive way.

 

they will fit but you will have to trim a little plastic and you will have some chassis rub
