16.5 beadlock rims
 
so i know my year comes stock with 17" rims unless u get the bigger package which i have but.... i can get a aweasome deal on some 37 in mud tires so i wonder if i can fit a 16.5 beadlock rim.... just wondering if itll clear... anyone know???

Won't clear the brakes. 17s are as small as u can go. Doubt they make 16.5 in the correct bolt pattern.

Yep...those will hit the calipers...

Nooooo stock f150's come with 16's. They will clear, 15's won't clear without some grinding.

Nope 17s are the smallest you can go, I have 17s.
Here are some picture of how close the front brake caliper is and some bolt to the rim.

This thread is posted in the 04-08 section so u would assume the truck being referenced is an 04 to 08 which 17 is the smallest that will fit. 97-03, 16 is smallest. 95 and prior is generally 15s.
