tire size options

i have a 2007 fx4 screw that came with the 20in rims. i dont like 20s and am going to switch to the 18s in the link below. my qustion is what size tire should i run on these rims with the backspace n offset listed? i dont have a level n i dont plan on but i am going to run an aggresive tire on it. i belive the stock size would have been 275/65/18 could i get away with 285/65/18 with no rubing n no triming? Also what about the pressure monitor? can i get them off my old stock ford rims or will i need new ones? Thanks

They should fit fine, yes if you can take them off your rims, not sure but might need to be calibrated or something since dropping in tire size. I believe that should be a 32.6 tire I have the 275/70/18 which is 33 and fit fine.

They are removable, and if the people label them and put em back in the same position they will not have to be reprogrammed

You could also run 305/60-18's (33x12.50).
