Stock Tire Question
Hello All
Sold my V10 Excursion and have moved over to the Dark Side. Ha. Bought a 06 F350 6.0 with stock LT 265 70/R17 BF Good's. I want to stay with the wheels but want something that fills in the gaping hole in the wheel wells. What do you guys and gals recommend? I want to stay with an all terrain and load range E. Thanks
Oh Yeah, This is my 1st post in this forum, So far, So good. Seems pretty nice, didn't really know you guys existed. Never got past the Excursion forum

I run some LT285/75R17 Nitto Terra Grapplers on stock 17x7.5 steel wheels. That is about as wide a tire as can be fit on the 7.5 rim. It is an E-Rated tire and works out to about 34 inches tall. Looks as though it should have come from the factory this way. I only have about a thousand miles on them so far. Hope this helps for what it's worth.

I have a 2006 PSD also & run the best tire there is IMO
The BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO in 305/65/18 (33.6 inch Tall) & i have NO rubbing issues whatsoever !!!!
Yes its a 10 ply tire & stays firm while pulling the 5'er (this is my 4th truck w/BFG's)
