What size tires for Platinum on 24's?
What size tires can I fit onto 24" rims for my new F150 Platinum super crew? Tirerack.com only gives me the option to run 295-35 r24's. Can I fit a bigger tire than this? I'm not interested in a lift.

305-35-24 is 32x12x24
that would be your best bet.

this tire is only a half inch wider then the 295/35/24. its 32" tall regardless which will look good.

I agree. I'd go with 305/35-24's. I'd also install a set of lowering shackles out back.

Went with Kumho Ecsta 295/40's on black 24's. Should have pic for you guys by tomorrow. I tried to order the 32's, but Tirerack said they wouldn't fit on my 24x9.5 rims.

It is too high, especially in the back. Now what? Shackles?

Yeah, I'd go with lowering shackles at the very least. A 2/4 drop would look even better.

Who has got a 2/4 drop for a 2010 Platinum? Eibach's website drops off at 2008. Can I still tow after putting on a drop kit?
