tire size

Hello All,
I have a 2004 f-250 FX4, it came with LT265/75R16. When they wore out I replaced them with LT285/75R16, I would like to know if I can go to LT305/70R16 ? The truck has a stock suspention.

i would think on a stock wheel you're probably going to scrub on the leaf springs. and possibly the lower valence.

And a stock 16x6.5 wheel is probably too narrow for a 305mm wide tire.
