Default 2014 F-150 STX with factory 20s 305 55 20 fit????

I am looking into getting the rough country 2.5 leveling kit and I want o keep my factory 20s which I haven't found many people with on here. I wanted to see if I can run 305/55r20 or 35 12.50 20s on the factory rims and not rub the upper a arm???

I'm running 35/12.50/20s on stock wheels with a leveling kit. I do have some rub if I turn the wheel all the way to the right.

But they look good?

305/55/20 is a 33.21" tire. You can run that on a factory height 4WD truck and stock wheels. You wouldn't need a leveling kit if you kept factory wheels or at least factory wheel fitment.

I ask because I haven't seen anyone with the same 20s I have with a 33 or 35 that are 12.50.
My rims are 20 x 8.5 with a +44 offset

My rims as well are 20X8.5 with a +44 offset. Best option is to go to a store and have them test fit them for you. Discount Tire will do that for you if you have one in your area.

Well if you have the same offset as I do then I shouldn't have any issues which is great to hear. Thanks for your answer

No problems with the LT305x55x20 Nitto Terra's I had on my '11 Lariat...tires are a little on the heavy side so expect a 2 to 3 mpg drop. I still got up to 17 mpg on the highway with the 5.0 and 3.55's. Good looking beefy tires!

Does look good I was looking to get the cooper stt pro 33s or 35s. But it's good to know that they will fit. I know the tread width for the coopers are 12.4 inches and the Terra's are 12.6 so don't believe I should have a problem

The Cooper's are some nice tires also. Just remember the taller you go the more your speedometer and performance will suffer. A programmer can correct most of it. 35's will be roughly 6 mph off from factory 32's.
