Default Tires on 07 f150

I know there is a post in the sticky section about tire fitment on these trucks, buuuut i dont want to go the biggest i can, i just noticed that in a 255/70/17 there isnt much for offroad tires, what other tire size is close to stock and doesnt throw the speedo off as much. Thanks!!

I run 295/70/r17s and my speedo is almost dead nuts on. No tire rub with a 2.5 level

Nope, but measure to be sure.

I'm running 295/70/R18 nitto trail grapplers and my speedo is still accurate. I have a Rough Country 2.5 inch kit.

The hell bent steel 2.5 put my front half an inch higher than the rear. It's a 4x4 so that might have something to do with it.

265/70/17 is really close if u don't want much bigger. If u don't want to be nose high on your 07 go with a 2 inch level.
