What is the best size to go with??

So, I'm asking for the best size tire for my stock FX4 rims? I currently have Firestone Destination A/T's on my truck, 285's/18's.. I like tires like Km2's and FS Dest M/T's etc, what would be the biggest size I could run (w/o any problems, ie. rubbing etc) on my FX4 with a 2"AS levelling kit?? I'm looking for a more aggressive looking tire to beef up my truck.. Thx for any input....

You can actually run a 35" tall tire if on a stock rim if you keep the tire width around 12.50 or less. Some folks are running the 325 width but it rubs and a 13" wide tire on a 7.5" rim is not that safe and the tire will wear unevenly. On an 05 4x4 with a level kit you should be able to run a 35/12.5/18 KM2 or MT's with minor trimming.

WIth a leveling kit and the oem wheels you can fit a 35x12.50-18 but they will rub the control arms slightly at full steering lock.
