I'm running 285/65R18s right now on a stock truck. No rubbing ever.

I installed Nitto Terra G's 275 70 18 LT's on my F150. I wanted the extra height and slightly beefier look . It was good. No rubbing no turn radius issues. I did trim the lip on my front D side mud flap by about 1/2". Works well for me!
