Tire Suggestions
These continentals have to go... I the problem is that i cant find much out there in the 275/65/18 size, so my question is what is another good size that would not require me to change any of the stock suspension? I am looking at going either Toyo AT or BFG AT...

Discount tire direct has 32 different tires that size, if you go 255x65x18, it's 13 different tires. |

What are the stock standard 18" rims width? 7" or ?
I think my truck will arrive with Continentals LT275/65R18 for SRW F-250 Why don't you like the tires? Here are some Michelins at SAMS CLUB |

They might as well be slicks. After I got rid of them, I was on a snow covered lake with my Coopers and a buddy in his 2010 F250 with the Contis. He got stuck in 4WD. I pulled him out in 2WD. Thats no bull. They are probably a good highway tire, but snow or mud......forget about it! |

I believe the Lariat rim width is 8".

keep the Conts for summer until they wear out (5-months)
Cooper Discovery sipped/studded for winter (7-months). |
When I asked at the time I orderd my truck if I could specify Michelin's I was told no. I did NOT want Continentials. Of course they came in with Conti's. My dealership swapped the Conti's out for Michelin's without batting an eye....Customer Care at it's best!

I have Dick Cepek Radial FC-ll's coming in tomorrow, 35x12.5x18. Hopefully will get them installed this weekend.

LT295/70/18 Nitto Terra grappler AT are on my stock Lariet 18x8 rims. Great tires! I ordered the truck and paid for at tires. It came with MS Continental. The dealer checked and said this is their AT tire. I wasn't happy and peeled them off at 1471 miles. They are for sale!:-dancing1
