Default Duratrac 285/60R20

Will these fit a stock 2013 fx4? They are 33.5 tall and 11.5 wide.

I have those exact tires on my 2013 Lariat 4x4. I put a 2 inch level on the truck and they rubbed the lower front valance when the wheels were turned under load (primarily when backing up and turning tightly to either the left or right). A little trim and the problem has been solved. I doubt they will fit up front without a level. The rears fit just fine stock.

Every truck is different I suppose. The problem isn't so much with the size of the tires, but the sidewall blocks were rubbing.

Weird how different trucks can have varying results; I had no rubbing issues with mine when I mounted them with the factory suspension and definitely none when I added the 2-inch front leveling system.

I also have aftermarket rims as well. 20x9 ET +14 Fuel Hostages, so with the offset they stick out about 1/2 to 1 inch more than stock. That is probably why I rubbed slightly. I didn't have to trim much off the corner of each side of the lower plastic to get the clearance I needed.

I have had my 285/60-r20 duratracs on for over a year now. No rubbing at all, but I have my bilstien level set to 1.75 inches up front.

Been running these tires for a year now. Stock FX4, no level. Slight rubbing at full wheel lock to the left when backing out. Great tires and little hum. 20mpg today on a road trip. Do great in snow as well.

You have 3.55 or 3.73 gears?

What's your before and after mileage?

Programer? Recalibration?
