Which tire!!

I have a 04 FX4 with a 2" AS leveling kit installed. I love the way it looks now. Going to install some new tires soon but have no idea what size or type to put on. Im looking for a aggressive look but don't want to listen to tire drone on the highway. I seen some post on BFG 305's but not to go ant bigger than 315's on stock rims.
Could somebody out there give me an idea what to go with on my stock rims! Regarding size and brand and i don't want any rubbing.

Thanks .

If you don't want any rubbing go with a 33x12.50 (305/65-17) or a 33x11.50 (285/70-17 or 285/65-18). I'd suggest the BFG AT KO, Nitto Terra Grappler, TOyo AT, Pro Comp Xtreme AT or **** Cepek FC II.

I installed a set of 305/55/20 on stock wheels, there is minor rubbing on the control arm at full lock. Everyone that I know with an F-150 who is running a 12" and wider tire has some sort of rubbing. Some have put on spacers to correct but I just let mine go because it is not causing any problems.

Sorry. I forgot to mention what size rims i have! I have the stock 18" rim. So if you could recommend a tire for that size rim would be great.

Thanks for your replys.

I got the 2" AS with the 305-65-18 BFG all terrains and the are 34x12x18 and the fit great with zero rubbing, but I ordered 35 BFG Muds, so I get them on in a week or two and I will let you know how they work out
