tire fitment

i have a 96 f250 supercab long bed stock suspension. i came across a set of 35x12.50x16.5 general grabbers on a set of 16.5 x 9.75 american racing wheels. will these fit my truck without a lift? im sure everyone has seen questions like this. thanks for any input.

Do a search on it.. I think 33 is the biggest you can put under it without a lift of any sort.. I could be wrong though but lots of guys want to go with 35's and a lift is always mentioned with it.

I had a 96 F-250 reg cab long bed 4x4 and tried putting 35-12.5-16.5's on it and they fit on the back ok but the front rubbed hard with any turns other than straight. You'll want a lift for sure.
