Default Wheels & Tires

New to the F150. Just purchased a 2010 f150 xlt extended cab, and had the front end leveled up 2". I'd like to put on beefier tires but am not shure how big I can go. Currently have stock rims and tires and would like to keep the stock rims but get bigger and beefier looking tires. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What size are your tires now, what's written on the side?

I'm sure you can go bigger than I had/have. With the stock 17's I was running 285/70/17 BFG AT's. Which is about a 32 inch tire. No rub or anything and that was without a level. I was very happy with the look. I just got new rims. Stuck with a 17 and same tires but different offset and backspacing and I have slight rubbing when I hit a bump while turning. Mine is also a 2010 XLT SC 4x4.

Just my two cents you can use- Well that's a pretty good size my buddy has an avalanche with 285/75-17 BF good wrench's and those are the same as 33s and he could prob go up one more without scrubbing
