depends on how worn the front and rear springs are. if it doesnt sit real low to the ground you could probably fit 33s, might rub a little when you turn but you could probably fit em. does the truck currently have 235s or 265s (if its stock)?if you showed us pics of the truck it might help.

they fit on yours and mine because our trucks came stock with 265s so they sit higher that ones that came stock with 235s. my dad has one thats stock with 235s and he could barely fit 31s if he tried.

So different model/year f150s from 92-96 came with 235 or 265s and comes with a different suspension?.

ok yeah 33s should fit on that truck, at most you might need a leveling kit but they'll probly fit without it. from the looks of the pic it has 265s, same as 31s. some of the 4x4s came stock with 265s and seems to me, may not be true, but seems like stiffer suspension. the front springs on all of these sag over time and looks like that one is so you could just get new springs or 2wd f250 coil springs (stiffer) instead of a leveling kit and it would give you a little more clearance up front. but like i said, not sure about them being stock with different suspension just seems like they sit higher that the ones that came with 235s.

I don't think the suspension would change because of stock tire size i dont think ford would have taken the time to do it and mine came with 235's and I have 34 inches of clearance and my front coil springs sag a little

Ive got 33x10.50 on stock rims on my ext cab 5.8 4x4. They rubbed a tiny bit on the valance. I took that off anyway, looks taller. Ive wheeled alot and flexed and havent rubbed once.
