35in tires
recently traded my 05 f150 in on a 14 f250 xl 6.2 with the snow plow package and xlt power group option at least I think what its called. I have been reading on this forum and was wondering if anyone has tried 35s without a leveling kit cause my truck already sits dead level and if I do need a 2.5 level kit, id like to know how many of you are running the drop track bar bracket or if it isn't needed. thanks alot

I can't say with certainty as I put a leveling kit on my 350, but there are folks here on FTE (mostly in the 6.7 forum) that have put 35's on a stock truck. I have 35x11.50's and it would probably fit fine without the leveling kit, plenty of clearance.

Didn't Ford put taller blocks on the '14 250's? If so, you could probably get away with a mild leveling kit without the nose being higher than the rear.

My rear block measures 3.5in and truck sits level. How about the drop trac bar bracket if I do go to do a 2.5 level with aal or bigger block in rear

i believe you need the bracket or an adjustable rod if you do not want the axel off center. i believe the brackets cheaper . i also agree i believe 35s will fit stock

I have 315/70R17 on my 2012 F250, they measure very close to 35". Minor rubbing at full lock left/right on the mud flaps.

I have a 2013 F350 short bed crewcab with the plow package and my 35x12.50R20 Toyo MT fit just fine under it. Gives it a great stance to say the least. Enjoy

I do but not the factory ones (Husky's)... You can see they help for about 8-12" back.
