Default Bigger tires for 2012 FX4 leveled with stock 18'' rims

I have a 2012 FX4 with 18" stock rims and a Hell Bent leveling kit on it. I am wanting to get bigger tires for my truck. Does anyone know what the biggest size tired will fit on my truck and not rub. I dont want to have to cut or make any other modifications if possible. Any pictures, websites, help and advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

After one trip to Vegas nothing will rub.

It'll make its own clearance.

I'd use a 305x65x18 BFG AT which is close to 34 inches tall. A great size tire for a leveled 4x4.

Haha!!! I found myself driving through the parking lot at Gander Mountain just looking at tires. I have to say I saw a lot of F-150's with every tire you can imagine. The BFG AT KO's were the best looking tires. Though the Wrangler Duratracs looked very nice. As long as you don't go too wide, you should be able to use most any 35" tire. PAW PAW, do you have the KO's on yours? I saw a pic in your other thread and those tires (and your truck) look really nice.

That's big ole heavy tire in 325. They ought to look good as long as you're doing wheels with some applicable back spacing.

I'm running Nitto Terra's on my '11. On my '04 I had BFG TA/KO's, Toyo AT's and Toyo MT's.
