I can promise you there'll be rubbing issues, I've got 305's with the torsion bars turned way up and had to trim just a little at the bottom of the front valance. Also with a load on back or loaded trailer if I don't pressure up the airbags in the back the tires rub just a little bit in the rear.
I'll also tell you that if you don't reprogram the computer your gonna hate that searching shift point in the tranny along with the gas mileage drop you're going to see. Later Whit PS this is on a 01 S-crew 4x4

Running 315 75 R16's Yokohama Geolanders on my 2001 Screw and have slight rubbing on tight turns. Otherwise they fit nicely. No shifting problems either. Truck is bone stock with no lift.

Ok I stand partially corrected.

I had some front end work done back in July and the tech indicated someone had modified the front end. Not sure exactly what was done, however, I had him return it to stock and max out the torsion bars. Still running the yokohamas 315/75R16s. In addtion the front valiance had been trimmed.

After posting, also noticed sloppy shifting.....yea....yea......Bronco knows his stuff....... Added an Edge chip and made the adjustment for the oversize tires. Shifts smooth now and the gas mileage is better. Getting around 11 to 12 in the city. Prior I was getting less than 10.

I'll try to post a pic in the next day or two.
