35's
I found a deal on some 20" Fuel's wrapped in 35x12.5x20's for a price that I cant say no to. Having a rough country leveling kit installed and slapping them jokers on there. Truck place says it will be fine because the Ford wells are so big, maybe some trimming but nonetheless will work. Mine is a '15 XLT 4x2 3.5L non-eco. I'll let y'all know how it turns out

I have a 2016 f-150 I'm getting ready to do the 2.25 inch leveling kit.....I have done a lot of research on it and looking at different photos I'm gonna do 295-70 18 on stock 18" chrome wheels..... I find that most of those tires are actually 34.3 inches tall......most 33" tires are only 32.5" tall.....personally I like the bigger tire....... on a side note my 2006 super duty has 35x12.50 general grabbers on it and they actually measured a hair over 34" tall

Update: So the 35's tucked right in with the RC leveling kit. If I wanted to drive straight down the highway I would be fine, but when it came time to turn, forget it. Had to cut a section of the crash bar out both in front of the tire and directly behind it and also trim some of the plastic out obviously. Removed the lower air valance all together. In the end, I have full turn capability and no rub-once the tires need replaced I will probably take the size down a tad though. As for now, this will work. Don't plan to off-road in anything outside of going out to the land which is dirt road and smooth trails. Got one headed to college and a mortgage now, no room for broken truck anymore! Went from about 22mpg hwy down to 18 from what I can see early on.
