275/60/20 will easily fit your truck. That's only 1" taller than stock.

People on here have had success with 285/65/20 with no modifications.
Off topic but.. How did the BFG's affect your mileage?

I'll take one tomorrow. No problem at all.

I've had zero rubbing issues. The ride is "stiffer" but I wouldn't say harsh. If these were swapped on when you purchased it, you would just think it's a normal ride. I haven't checked my MPG, booze posted that website. It's minimal and the benefit is in my corner...my warranty will last 2.5% longer or whatever % it is that my mileage is off due to the tires. Certainly not enough to worry about things.

Nice upgrade! Those tires look awesome. They almost look like a mud terrain from a distance with the aggressive sidewall.

I like them better than the goodyears....stiffer sidewalls little firmer ride.
but I just traded my superduty in on this f-150 so I'm used to a pretty rough ride lol
I changed em @ 300 miles and only have 340 on it now. so cant give any info on gas mileage

I ran 285/75/16 on my superduty, the old style TA KOs and these are quieter than those.

Nice truck, I have a set of 34x12.5x18 BFG KO2 tires on my 16, but I also put a Rancho quick lift on the front end.
