Hey guys, I'm hoping some of you with stock height f150 and bigger tires and or wheels can post some pictures. I have a 13 fx4 and like the stock height and quality of the ride, but I'm thinking of replacing my stock 20 inch wheels with a different wheel (same size) but with a beefier tire. Would i need some spacers to get the look of a wider stance? Should i consider a smaller wheel? Any help and suggestions would be appreciated.

the backspacing of the wheel will determine how far they stick out from the fender. Since you want to pair a wider stance with bigger wheels and front level will more than likely be necessary IMO unless you dont mind trimming your new truck.

I want to keep it stock. Leveling would mean raising, and I know it would only be the front, but I tow things. So that would mean in order to avoid a nose high front, I would have to raise the back too. So, just stock for me. I'm sure there are some people who have the right wheel and tire combination that avoided raising and trimming. Right? Somebody?

I agree with you, I too want a much beefier/bigger tire but do not want to level the truck. Mine are 18" wheels. Hopefully someone here can give input.

I had completely stock suspension with 275/65/20 (34ish" tall) tires and they rubbed on the front-inside edge of the front wheelwells. This was with stock wheels though.

Here is my 2012 5.0L XTR Stock height with 33x12.50R17LT Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tires. Never had any rubbing although it is very close, probably have half an inch of clearance both ways. The pictures doesn't do the truck any justice either, looks so much better in person just the crappy iPhone.

Thank you! Love those wheels and tires. So I guess I'll have to decrease the wheel size to 17's. Hows the ride quality and gas milage?

PawPaw had 305/55/20 Terra Grapplers on stock rims with no level and no rubbing. He later added a 2" level just to get rid of some rake.

Truck looks great! Do you happen to know the offset of your wheels?
