What size can I get under her

02 F150 2 wd 5.4l =D

Here it is as it sits now.
I want to know if I can get 33's under it, or only 32s?

I need a general idea, I got 35's stuffed under my ranger, but I am not looking to lift this one. Stock ride height what can I get under it? Thank you, pics of your trucks are appreciated too.



And this is the idea of what I want it to look like..2 min photoshop

My 1999 F-150 4x4 has 285/70/17's under it (which translates to about 33"), unmodified. I am almost sure that these were the largest tires that I could get under it without a lift. Since your 2wd sits lower, it is unlikely that you could get 33's under it without rubbing.

285/75/16 is the biggest you can get under there and you MIGHT get alittle rub.

this is a 32.5x11.5x16

What size rim are they going on? I would think 32 would be all you could do, I can help more with exact tire size if I know your what rim you will be running...

Going with either a 15" or 16" rim. I want 15, but it depends on the tire as some only allow 16 with certain sizes.

Thanks for the help so far guys! So I will probably go with some 32 by 11.5's then.

And are 150's a 5x135mm?

good call on the 32's. I ran 33's (285/70/17) on my truck for a while before I finally lifted it. They were way stuffed and rubbed at full lock on the lower valance. And yes, the bolt pattern is 5x135.

I'd suggest a 16x8 inch wheel with 4.5 inches of backspacing and a set of 265/75-16's (32x10.50).
