What size tire?

I am currently looking to buy this kit http://www.americantrucks.com/2inch-...-9703-4wd.html and was going to stay with a 17in rim (not sure of width yet) but what size tire could i put on my 2002 F150 and how wide of a rim? i was thinking 17x9? but totally clueless about what size tire.

Need to do a search. Most of the folks on here will tell you the torsion keys are a waste of money. You can adjust the torsion bars without the keys, and then ad rear blocks, if needed. As far as wheels, 17x9 with 4.5" back space is a good choice. For tire size ither 285-70-17 (33-11.5-17) or 33-12.50-17 is about max.

Ditto, go with the 33x12.5 it'll look really good
