Tire Size Question...

I dont know anything about tire sizes and stuff like that. I have about 4 or 5 sets of 245/75/16's laying around our farm and i was wondering if those would fit on my 94 F150.

check your rim size. you might have 15 inch rims on that 150. which would mean they would not fit. the last number on the tire is the rim size. for example- 245/75/16 - they are for a 16 inch rim.

measure heights and compare sizes. Im not sure how much backspacing you would need, maybe just the stock amount..
