Default Tire sizing

I know there are tons of threads, but where is the one that runs down what will rub and what won't with different level kits?

I am wanting a tire that will probably clear without a leveling kit, but if I find the rub excessive I will level it.

I have an 05 lariat with 18 in wheels.

Thanks guys!

Edit: if it weren't for metric tire sizes Id be fine. IIRC, 33x10.50s would fit fine, right??

It's a sticky at the top of this thread.

I just put 285/70/17's on mine and they don't rub before the leveling kit. That's a 33" tire.
