Default Tires on F-150 FX4

I'm new to the F-150 game but I have been driving an Explorer and since turned that into a project car so I got an F-150 as my daily driver back in Sept with issues at all yet. Needless to say I have been very impressed with this truck so far. Well winter will be here in a few months and this puppy needs some new tires and I would like to go with a different size. Whats the maxium sized tire I can put on there? Its a FX4, 4x4, 2002 truck. Thanks for your help.

285s (33.4") without any rubbing.I would go with BFG A/Ts. i know someone that has fit 37s with a full torsion bar crank but tires will rub.

/\ /\ Oh, he beat me to it!
33's without any lift or level. It may rub a tiny bit when fully turned though. Nothing to worry about, it isn't grinding or shredding the tires.

I put Nokian Vatiiva 265/70/17 on my 02 Screw, very good in nasty Iowa winters, price was about $150 each. Have Goodyear ATS (same size) on my 01 scab, Nokian are much better!!
