Default Wheel and tires!! HELP ASAP

Ok I have a 94 f150 2wd. I am going to level it out. I am wanting to fit 20x10 wheels with 33s. Would they fit or would I have to do some cutting. Thanks

Sorry nobody responded sooner. With a leveling kit of 2-2.5" you should be able to fit the 33's under your truck. You will probably want to extend the front bumper out a bit because you will rub it with 33's. Also, the wheel you get has to have the right backspace, or wheel spacers, or you will rub the radius arm and won't be able to go full lock.

I think they'll rub pretty bad even with a level since it's only a 2wd.

2wd are a bit lower than 4wd so it will take more lift to avoid the rub. Thanks for calling me on that...I forgot to mention it.

About 2", I swapped my 2wd front axle for a 4x4 with a level and gained 4" of lift. Although sagged out springs could of been a factor.

Yeah I'm curious did they fit? I have a 1996 4x4 that I'm going to put a 2" level on it and was wondering what the biggest tire I could fit on a 18" rim would be.

Just for reference my truck has 31'' 10.50s on it w stock rims and it comes close to 1/2'' or less from the front bumper in it's stock position even with F250 springs. It's also a 4x4. With 18'' wheels you need to check the backspacing and also check a tire height calculator. You will have less sidewall w your tire so you need to figure out what metric size that will be w your 18" wheels. google wallace racing tire height calculator
