Default tires

1987 ford f150 4x4, Quadra shock front, will 33x12.5 tires fit without rubbing? If not, how big can I go. Is anyone out there running these tires that know

they will sorta fit, but will probably rub on the front bumper and at the rear of the front inner fender, and if you bottom out hard enough they might hit the top of the wheel opening and kink the fender. Tires vary alot in size so , you might have issues someone else doesn't .The important thing to check is clearance at the bumper , because it's sharp and can cut a tire, the plastic inner fender will just wear away , eventually.

they will rub the radius arms and likely the fenders. my 32x11.5 just barely miss the fenders and rub the radius arms only near full lock.
