Default Tire Size after level

I know its been asked before but couldnt find the answer. I checked the chart that is stickied but wanted to verify and also ask about what tire to get.

I have a 2012 XL F150 SuperCab. I will be adding either a 2 or 2.5 level and replacing the wheels and tires. Right now I am looking at a 18 inch wheels and would like a more aggressive tire. What size fits without rubbing? Suggestions? Brand? I do a lot of highway driving as well. Live in Omaha so would like it to preform well in snow and ice conditions.

Thanks!

Sorry about that. I am looking at one of the two below.

18 (18x9) XD Series Rockstar 6x135/6x139.7 +0mm Matte Black
or
18 (18x9) Helo HE878 6x135 -12mm Black

From personal experience, with the +0mm I have ran 35x12.50x18 with a 2" level and with a -12mm greater (lesser) offset, 33x12.50x18 would most likely be as big as you could go without rubbing. I run a 2" level and have 20x10 (-24mm) wrapped in a 33x12.50x20 and I have zero rubbing at all; however, if my tire were a 1/4" taller, I would rub my cab.

Hope this helps!

I have 20x9, XD Addicts with a -12mm offset, and I run 305/55/20's... which is a 33" tire.
I had to trim some of the plastic junk below the front bumper, and they rub the rear splash guard at full-lock in reverse.

18 (18x9) XD Series Rockstar 6x135/6x139.7 +0mm Matte Black would work out best with some new BFG KO2's 285/65/18
