Default Tire Help

Hey guys I recently put a leveling kit on my 04 F150 and now I need some nice looking tires to go with it. I am not playing with a great deal of money and do not know how big to go. I only have 17" factory rims so what size do you think look and fit best? Thanks in advance for the advice. BTW Does anyone know of a place that I can buy tires cheap on the web?

I'd recommend www.tirerack.com. They're pretty cheap. And as far as the tire size I think you can fit a 35" under there. I'd recommend either the Toyo A/T's or the Mickey Thompsons.

Let us know how it goes!

Ok guys I have talked to a few local dealers of the BFG AT KO and they tell me that I should go with either 285 70 17 for 1000.40 mounted and balanced or the 305 65 17 1086.14 mounted and balanced. Anyone with experience I would appreciate some input on if this is a good price, which will look better and will either rub bad when turning??? HELP I am getting excited!!!!!

Are you going to be off-roading at all or is yours a street queen?? I'd say go with the 305's for the width and it looks better IMO.
