Default What tires to get??

Alright, so I'm finally getting new tires this week or next. I have a 03 f150 supercrew king ranch 4x4. I want to put at least 305's under it, but I'm thinking about putting a level kit on it so what would be the biggest tire I could put? I am considering the BFG KM2's cuz they look pretty bad. What does everyone think? I can get new wheels if I need to, I've been looking at either Mickey Thompson Classic II's or American Racing Baja's if I was getting the wheels too.

before i lifted my truck this is how it looked: 285/75 bfg km2's (33x11.50), stock wheels. I had just cranked the torsion keys for a free lift.

I have 305's on a 10 inch wide wheel on mine with the torsions turned up and I still love the stance of it.

Crank your Torsion bars, then get the Mickey Thompson's and 305 BFG's and you will have that awesome classic bulldog stance

Here's how that SCrew will sit leveled

Toyo's wear fast especially if your not up on your rotations. Go with Mickey Thompsons. They're a little pricey, but their a kick *** tire!

This is not my first set of Toyo's by any means or mud tire for that matter.
