Wheel and Tire ???

OK I want to put aftermarket wheels and tires on my F150. I would like to run 18s and some Toyo open country ATs.

I need to know the biggest size tires i can run on my truck without a lift, and what offset and backspacing I need to look for with the aftermarket wheels.

Any info is helpful and welcome!

4x4 or 4x2? If it's a 4x4, I'd suggest the 325/60-18 (33x13.00) on a 18x9 inch wheel with 5 to 6 inches of backspacing.

Have you looked into Ultra wheels at all? I can work you out a great deal with some toyos and ultras that will come already mounted and balanced.

Click for Ultra

Less backspacing means the wheel sticks out farther correct?

Only if you get a wide wheel with shallow backspacing.

Why do you suggest the 13" wide tire?

Depends on the width and backspacing of the wheel. Could be none, could be minor, could be major.
