How big can I go?
2008 F-150 4WD
I plan on doing a 2.5" level and keep 18" stock wheels. I have read on the forum I can go to a 305/65/18 for sure, but I would like to do 325/65/18 if possible can anyone answer that for me?
Tires would probably be BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO tires.

I was wondering if anybody knew whether or not the 17" 04-08 rims will fit the same year Lariat 4wd Screw w 18" rims, or is the brake roters and calipers a bigger size and will not allow for 17's. I'm probably gonna get my a** chewed for this but I've read through this thread couldn't find (or missed) an answer. Thanks

05 FX4 325/60R20 20x10 Rockstars -24 offset
I've searched and searched and can't find my scenario already discussed anywhere. My apologies in advance if this has already been covered.
I bought an 05 F150 FX4 already lifted (assumed 6" suspension lift) with 35x12.50 General Grabber AT2 on 18" (x8?) Aftermarket Rims. No rubbing issues at all.. Also, 3.73 gears.
Got an awesome deal on a set of 325/60R20 Nitto TGs on 20x10 Rockstars w -24 offset.
Once installed, there was rubbing on lower front valance piece, did some simple trimming to resolve. Put it on inclines and declines and quickly realized rubbing issues were greater than anticipated (at full lock) as it was hitting on the backside of wheel well significantly.. turns out I only have a 4 - 4.5" suspension lift..
I go to 4wheel parts and they tell me to cut more or lift a little more.. I get Pro Comp ProRunner SS shocks for an additional 2.5" up front (give or take) and an Add a Leaf for the rear..
Also, got some 4.56 Yukon Gears..
My buddy is installing everything for me now, but he thinks the tires are still going to rub.. he is still finishing the rear gears, so won't know for sure till he lowers it back to ground and test drives..
Shouldn't 6" of suspension lift pretty much clear anything in the 35" range??
Appreciate any input...
If they still rub, I am hoping I can do a little more trimming, but what if it is still bad? I don't want to lift any higher, and would like to avoid defeat and having to get a skinnier wheel with less offset.

Why wouldn't it fit? I'm looking for new tires on stock rims and suspension. I'd like to put the most rubber under there that I can. 285/70-17 is just about 33".
