If your looking at 18's the minimum size you would want is 285 65 18 and those are barely bigger then stock 18" f-150 tire size. I had a 2" level with 35's for two years then dropped down to 305 60 18 nittos and the 305 60 18's looked stock. You need a 65- 70 series in order to have a decent bigger look. I never had any issues with rubbing, even with the 35's.
Go to google. type the tire size and then f-150, then look at the images and sort thru you'll find alot of pics.

No but my buddy has on his dodge and a few contractors I know use them for winter tires on their trucks so I know the are good in the snow. BTW here is a pic of my truck with the 285 75 18's and then with the 305 60 18's. You can see the 305 60 18's look too small for the truck, they looked stock so I sold them out of frustration, lol!
