Another biggest tire question...
Hi guys, first post here...
I have a 2008 Ford F150 4x4 5.4L 4-door with a 2.5" leveling kit. I currently run what are probably the stock tire size 265/70/17's.
I just bought after market wheels, still 17 inch that have a offset of 10. I had my stock tires put on since they were brand new still and will leave them on until they wear out, but they are stretched a little on the new rim and they definitely don't fill in the wheel well very nicely.
That being said, would I be able to run 315/70/17's on my truck with it's current configuration without cutting or modding anything?
Thanks.

315/70R17 may rub slightly with a 10mm offset.. there is a guy running them with a +12 overe here: https://www.f150forum.com/f38/tire-w...x5/#post653661
He's got the same size tire (which are the stock size for the Raptor, btw)... but his offset is +12 with a backspacing of 5.5... described here
