Exclamation replacement tire/wheel size 20"?

hey guys. new to this forum, and well, i love it! i own a 2002 f150 supercab fx4 with the 5.4L. (great truck) it is currently sporting the stock rim/tire size( which i believe to be 17"?) not sure on the tire size, but its whatever the truck comes with. just havent looked.... my question is i want to upgrade the rim and tire size. i was looking at a 20'' rim with 275/45/20 tiresize. what is the largest rim/tire size (or what would recommend) that can be put on with NO complications? the truck is completely stock (ride height,ect...) and i want to keep it that way. any input would be great.

thank you!

If you go any smaller on a 4x4, it's gonna look really odd. Personally, I'd go with a 305/45-22 tire, remove the oem 2 inch lift blocks from the rear and back off the preload on the torsion bars to lower the truck some.
