Am planning to go with the 285/75/16's but am curious if anyone did the 295/75/16’s without lift?? Do they rub?? Sure wish BFG made them in a 305/70/16.

Summers a coming – FORD Trucks and Warm Summer Weather – It don’t get any better than that!!

GinosF150 according to 4lo.com a 305/70/16 is a 32.8x12 and a 285/75/16 is a 32.8x11.2 The 295/75/16 works out to be a 33.4x11.6 - Unfortunately BFG doesn’t make a 305/70/16, I will probably go with the 285/75/16's but thought I would at least check on the 295's. Your truck must look awesome with the 305's!!

Got my wheels today, did a test fit - not much margin for error - no way a 15" would fit.

A buddy of mine has the 295's on his 98 with a 4" Rancho lift and they come close to rubbing. I just put some 285's on 1 month ago, and they fit great, no rubbing. And I have no lift. Go with the 285's, they are great.
