I have an 08 Harley that I'm having the same issue with. Finally got a tire shop to do some research and found Nitto 285/50/22.They are $380 each though. Will need 2.5" level and alignment. The 305/45/22 might be a bit wider than I'd like but both have enough sidewall for me in the A/T version. That blue truck on the pics is a nice set up. The limited still looks like our stock. Not aggressive enough.

I have a '13 Limited and I'm putting 285/55R22 Terra Grappler G2s on mine as soon as my Pirelli Crapions wear out! They're 34.1"H X 11.2" W. I have F150lifts Boss coil overs set at 2" and may have to do a little trimming, but want bigger tires.

That's the ones I'm looking at in the 50 series. These A/t tires are high. Had 305/45/23 on my Yukon xl before this truck and thought $270 per tire was bad. Make sure you post some pics.

Just a follow up. I ended up buying the hankook 305 45 22 a/t tire. I liked the look and the price was right. I would have gone with the 285 50 or 55 22 nitto but couldn't justify the extra $600 they would have cost me.
So far they have been great. I daily drive them, they are smooth and quiet. I took them on a 2k mile trip towing my 6k trailer and they handled the weight perfectly. I even took them in the sand and they had enough tread to keep moving in 4wd. And they look great, I didn't want my top of the line truck looking like a mud truck

I know this thread is old. But how are you Limited guys fitting the 305 on your wheels? Aren't they 9.0" wide? Looking at the specs for 305 wide tires they're rated for 9.5"+ wide wheels. Any issues with uneven wear?

Ford puts 315s on an 8.5" rim on the Raptors. A lot more sidewall than what we are talking about here, but still. It'll be fine on a 9" wheel.

Wow!! I didn't realize that. Thanks man!! Looking at a set of Nitto 402s in 305/45r22 for the 2011 Limited wheels I want to put on my XLT. All the tire manufacturers for that size revvedrec 9.5 minimum. But I guess that's just a recommendation, not a requirement.

Next I gotta make sure I like the look of the 420s tires lol They're in great shape and at $200 it's a good deal. Was going between them and a set of 285/45r22 Duelers.
