35's will fit under a stock highboy. They're real tight under the '77.5-'79 trucks. 37's will require a 4" lift to clear with some room to move around.

I have 37's under my half ton with 7" of lift. The military take offs are HORRIBLE in wet weather. It doesn't matter what state the liquid on the road is in, if there's moisture on the pavement, you might as well be driving a truck with drag slicks. ...just throwing that out there for ya'.

4" suspension 3" body running on 38's in my profile picture. I normally run 35's. Can't figure out how to upload a pic from my phone. After putting on the flares, I hate them with a passion. They make your tires look goofy. Don't do flares. Unless you really like them. Then go for it.

What year is your truck? Remember 78-79 F250 4x4s were lower from the factory than the earlier ones. I ran 35s on my '75 stock and 37s after lifting the front 1.5" to level it. Now it's lifted about 6", though it's hard to say exactly how much since it's all custom rather than a kit, and it sits on 38.5s.

You have one of the best looking trucks on here, and your list of upgrades is very impressive. But I think we need to talk about your wheels.

2" skyjacker lift, full springs, with 35" bfg all terrains.






It is level, just doesn't look that way in the picture.

How wide are your rims and what is your off set on them?
