Default Straight Answer on tire size
I have a 1999 2wd f150 xl and have a 1.5inch Daystar leveling kit that will be installed, with 16x8 rims, I need to know what the biggest tire size i can run without any rub is. Thanks for any feedback.

Thank you for the additional information.

Size 265/75-16 will work without any rubbing and depending on the tire brand/model, size 285/75-16 should work as well. Tires are just like shoes, some run larger while others run smaller in the same size.
