You didn't state what size rim. I suppose you mean a 16. 315s will fit on a stock truck, but you will have to do some trimming. You need to go to F150World.com and look at Redwing's truck. He has the 315s. He had to do some trimming. If you run a 16x8 wheel, I know you can fit 285s without running. I think you can even go to 305s. If I remember correctly, 315s on 16x8s will rub a little, but not sure. On 16x10, 285s will rub a little. Hope this helps. Also, I think this question is in the FAQ section either here or on F150World. Good luck.

Cool

I really don't think that 315's will fit a stock 4x4...I'm just taking a guess here, but I think you might be mixed up a little Georgia. I believe Redwing has 305's which translate to 33x12.50's. A 315/75 is about a 35x12.50. I dont think the 315's would fit a stock truck just from experience. I had 315's with just a 3" body on mine and they came pretty damn close to rubbing..I had to do some cutting for them to fit without any rubbing....

How right you are my friend. Redwing has 305s. Yeah, I don't think the 315s will fit. It was 305s I was thinking about.
