Tire sizing with lift

I'm thinking about getting the 7" fabtech lift for my 4x2, not the ultimate 7.5" but the 7", and Im wondering what tires I can fit WITHOUT ANY rub?? Thanks!!!

probably 35s. I think there is another guy on here with that lift and he is running 35s.

Dang, too bad it's not a 4x4. What size rims are you planning on using?

I have a friend with a 2000 4x4 f150 with a 4" susp. lift and a 3" body lift and he runs 16.5x10 Weld rims with 36x15 Mickey Thompson Baja Belts. It looks great! I am afraid it would rub a bit on a 4x2 though.

Since your truck is a 4x2 I would say get 35x12.5R16 BFG AT's with 16x10 rims (or 16x9.75 depending on what make you want.) With that lift you should not have any rub at all.
