Largest tire for a stock 2016 F-250 Super Duty?

What is the largest tire that I can put on my 2016 F-250 Super Duty? It is a Crew Cab with 18" rims. Everything is stock.

I am running a 295x70x18 on my 2011 which unless I'm mistaken should handle the same size. I don't think I could squeeze any more rubber under my truck and keep it stock.

35 x12.5 on 20 inch rims. My wheels have 18mm offset and the tires do not sit outside the wells. i added the cheap fender flares for added protection but really not needed.
My wheels were 17 inch stock and my gearing is 3.31 which makes for really tall over gear ratio but my truck pulls my rv just fine....I did have to recalibrate for the taller tires to get the speedo correct...


Finally got the look i was looking for and off craigslist to boot!





Projects 1 and 2, priority changes depending on need and weather

On stock wheels you should not be outside the wheel well. The only reason mine are is because I have offset wheels.

I had the same question for my stock 2016. Mine came with 275/70 R18 E's. I am putting a truck camper on the back of mine and was thinking about going with a little bit bigger footprint tire, still in load range E but want to keep it completely stock. I also want a more aggressive tire as the All Terrain Michelin's it came with, while a good tire, are certainly not what I would call "All Terrain".

The Cooper S/T MAXX and AT3's are both available in a 295/70/18. They get pretty good reviews and are definitely all terrain. You can use your factory rims also.
The Cooper ST PRO and the Toyo M/T's are more mud tires and are also available in this size.
A lot of people seem to run mud tires on the road, but if you're putting a lot of road miles on, a true AT tire makes more sense to me.

Stock suspension on stock wheels with 315/60/20 Toyo MT. This is basically a 35x12.50 (Toyo lists it in parenthesis as such on their site) with a higher load rating than the actual 35x12.50x20. 3640 vs. 3195 lbs. Anything in the 12.50 wide range and you are probably going to rub on the radius arms with stock wheels. Not a big deal to some people, but it drives others crazy.

Here are a couple of shots down the side with those tires.

Do what this guy did. Check out the 6.7 section. There's threads there.

Also check out:

https://www.customwheeloffset.com/

They have pics of customer trucks with info on suspension, offset and tire size.
