I need help finding tires
I currently own a 2011 Ford F-150 XLT 4X4 5.0L and the tires I use are 265 70 R17. I ordered a 2"" front leveling lift . They say I can use a 35" tire, Is that true? Also I want to put on mastercraft courser MXT ( offroad / highway ) whats the largest tire I can go (without cutting wheel wells.
Im so noob when it comes to tires , I dont want to order wrong tires.
Haaaaalllpppp LoL

Welcome aboard! Search is your friend, there's probably 50 threads like this one. I have a 2" front level with 3" rear blocks and run basically a 35" Nitto Terra grappler, 295/70-18. Pics in my profile, not familiar with the Mastercraft tires, can you post a link?

CooperMastercraft - Courser MXT
Looks like a 315/70-17 is the same height but my Nittos are not as wide at 11.4 vs 12.8 I think it was? Are you putting them on stock wheels?

I'd guess they are 7.5" wide. You could go 285/70-17 without a level I think, and 295/70 with the level on stock rims. You could do rims later, like after winter. Have to watch the offsets and I don't know enough about that to speak intelligently on it. I got Fuel Throttle 18x9 and I forget the offset without looking at the box, but I'm going to run the stock wheels with 275/70-18 LTX/MS2 in the winter so I don't trash my new wheels. Maybe someone else will have better input
