Default Tire size help

Hi all, I am looking to change my rims and tires to a more knobby tire.
I currently have a 2013 Ford F-150 Limited. I don't have any lift or modification to the tires or rims and I would like to not have to lift or modify the truck any because of parking height restrictions.

So really what I'm asking is what tire/rim combination would work with my truck kept stock.

Here is what rims I have currently

Thank you all!
Eric

If you can't change the overall height, here is a chart that will compare various size tires and their outside diameter.

If you can stand 1" of extra height you can figure it out.,

I tried out the conversion but it had N/A for my tire.

Tire size is P275/45VR22

this one works pretty good too for comparing tire sizes. I assume youre just trying to find tire sizes that match what you have but in different width or different wheel sizes? Kind of conusing question or maybe im just reading it wrong.

There isn't going to be many options for 22" rims if you got to 18" or 20" you would have quite a few options.

Ya sorry I could have asked a clearer question, what I'm trying to do is decrease my rim size but keep the height of the truck the same.
Thank you for the site I will check it out.

Thank you everyone for all your help!

I decided to go with either the,

Tires/Rims #1
EXO Grappler AWT (18” LT275/65R18 E 123/120Q 206-910)
18” XD SERIES XD811 ROCKSTAR II Satin Black With Accents
Part #: XD81189066730 Cap Part #: SC-205

OR

Tires/Rims #2
Trail Grappler MT (17” LT265/70R17 E121Q 205-860)
17” XD SERIES XD811 ROCKSTAR II Satin Black With Accents
Part #: XD81178066735 Cap Part #: SC-205

What does everyone think of the EXO or the Trail? Comfort on and off road? Noise?
(I know Nitto has a rating I just like to hear a buyers opinion)

trail grapplers are crazy loud. Had them on my 3/4 ton and my dad has them on his 1 ton. You can definitely hear them going down the road. Neither he or I will be going back with them.
That being said, theyre awesome offroad and in the mud. So depends on what you use your truck for. I'm not offroad enough to get the full potential of them.

I have cooper atp 275/65/20 on my 3/4 ton and they have been really great offroad and nice an quiet on road. Very strong tire.
On the 150 i just put on wrangler duratrac 275/65/20s and they look really great. Not trail grappler aggressive but much more than most all terrain tires. Pretty quiet on the road, just a slight hum thats not bad. No experience offroad yet and I only have about 300 miles on them.

Cant speak for the exo grappler, never seen em.

Thank you for the review. I won't be doing enough off road riding to make them worthwhile either.
