What are the width of the 18" rims on the 2009 f150 4x4 XLT? I'm thinking about putting a leveling kit on and want to run 33x12.50"s but like the rims that are stock and don't want to change them. Will 12.50's work and be safe on stock wheels?

guys do run that size, and have zero issues. But the 7.5" rim is narrower than the minimum recommended from all the tire manufacturers.
I suggest you look into a 305 width tire. It will be alot safer on the 7.5" rim...and you won't have clearance issues. 12.5" wide is very very close to rubbing the upper control arm
