I have a 2005 F-150 SuperCrew XLT 4x4. I am having a 2.5" leveling kit installed and am ordering the Eagle 178 wheels, 18x9. Should I put 33" or 35" on my truck. Will both of these clear with no rubbing or trimming? What size tires would you suggest and what brand of tire, I don't do a lot of offroading, but I want something that will look aggressive, but still drive/ride good, I drive about 80 miles/day to/from work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

I'd suggest a 33 inch tire, the largest being a 325/60-18 (33x13.00). The Nitto Terra Grappler or Toyo Open Country AT would be great choices.

 

Thanks Wandell

 

These are 285/75-16s
Excellent clearance. Ive done some banging around the jobsites and they don't touch anywhere.

 

I've noticed on the older trucks the 33s look great, but on the 2004 and up model they look to darn small. I would love the look of Wandell's rig.

 

I would go with 33's. You can clear 35's but they rub in most cases while playing in the dirt. I have 33's on mine and they look great. Here's a pic.
