New Tires

Hello all....I have a 2011 F350 XLT with 18inch rims....I just put a 2.5inch level in the front then put another leaf in the rear to raise it one inch. Right Now im running Michelin LTX A/T2 LT275/70/R18. They are looking alittle small now with the lift. They are measuring a bit over 32inches now but I Believe they started out at 33 according to the Michelin Website.

I wanted an extra inch or so out of my tires, maybe 34s. Any suggestions??

Also, Im new to tires, Ive had trucks all my life but never had to alter them much. But now with work its becoming necessary...Do I need to stick to 275/70s or get a new rim? Or could I step it up to 285's?

Welcome to FTE tspills!!
I think you might be able to go with 295/70-18's
here is what I put on my 02 Ex and love them, 10k miles and you can't tell, they have done excellent in the snow we have had,,,(not enough of it!!) I am very pleased with them.
