what size
I got a 2001 2WD Sport F150. When I put a 3 in. body lift on it, what size tires should I get? The stock tires right now are 255/70/16.

You can, but most members complain that there stock 4x4 tires look too small.

If I get 275/70/16, can I still keep my stock wheels on the new tires? Or will they not fit? I know my stock rim is 16 inch but I just wanted to make sure.
