Default PowerBoost Tire Sizes

Has anyone with the "Hybrid" PowerBoost F150's put larger tires on them? I would like to level the front end and put 33's on it but not if it causes a bunch of issues.
TIA
Shane

suggest visiting f150gen14.com
more PB's over there with leveled and lifted setups. Consensus i've seen is that you lose your typical 1-3mpg and have to be even more conscious for it to stay in EV mode

In short, the different motor or battery won't have any effect on tire size fitment or level problems.
The motor is basically the same as the 3.5 ecoboost

I'm running aftermarket rims and BFG T/A KO2s, but they are both stock size and (almost) factory offset. I will say that the tires rubbed a wire bundle leading to the front steering knuckle even with an almost stock setup, and required me to zip tie things out of harm's way. The tires will nip at my mud flaps at full turn, though I don't have a solution for that yet. I'm running a level right now with a Fox 2.0 kit that my guy didn't adjust back to stock rake like I asked, so I can confirm that the mud flap rubbing is still present with and without a level.
So I can't comment on bigger tires, but I can caution you that ANY changes are likely to produce minor issues that you'll have to troubleshoot.

I've got a 21 powerboost that is leveled with 34.3 inch tires. Only had to trim the air dam ever so slightly.

Tire I have is 295 60r20 Mickey Thompson Baja boss which comes to the 34.3inch
