Whats Up Ya'll

Names Jay and I just purchased a 1996 F150 2wd Reg Cab Longbed. I hope to gain some knowledge of this truck on here and I hope to become an active part of the community.

I do however have a question. I searched but only found the answer to the newer style 2wd not the 92-96 gen. Soooo...

Whats the largest tire I can run on the truck without a leveling/lift kit with all stock component pieces.

Thanks so much for having me and I look forward to meeting ya'll soon!

Jay

Welcome to the site.
As far as tires, I've got an 88 4x4 so this might not be much help, but I run 31x10.5x15 with stock suspension.
What size rim do you have and are you planning on sticking with that size?

Welcome to the site!

x2 on the 31x10.50 size. Have to be sure that your front springs haven't sagged significantly, or will wear the new tires on the insides.

x3 on the 31x10.50 tires, that is what I am running on stock suspension. You would probably be able to get 33's with a 2" leveling lift kit.

Thanks for the warm welcome to the site guys and the helpful information.

I have been a Ford Man my entire life thus far owning a 1994 Ford Thunderbird SC that I just sold off after 8 years of ownership, and I was really looking for a newer Ext Cab but this truck came was offered as the following.

One Owner(Female), No Rust, Tons of New Parts Under the hood, Very Clean, so I would have been a fool to pass it up.

Thanks again!

Jay
