I would love to know if 37's rub with the snow plow package. I'm going to order mine that way regardless and hope I don't really need to add anything else to keep it from rubbing

Do you have any idea what your fender measurements were before the 37s? I have an f250 with the snow plow package and my front fender is running around 42.25 inches. Im thinking the 37s with fit with no leveling kit.

I'd think there'd be a big power and fuel economy drop with 37s gas or diesel.

That's about what I experienced with the bigger tires on the 2011. I always thought the mpg hit was in the 1.5 to 2 mpg range.

I have the snow plow prep package. It is still down in the front.

Not a good comparison, as you have a diesel. The gasser should sit a fair bit higher in the front with the 6,000lb Snow Plow Prep coils.

PS - Great looking truck though!

I have a regular cab gasser with the snow plow package. Still has some rake. Measured from the ground, 42.25" in the front, 45" in the rear. I think 37'so will fit as is. I won't know for a while, the wife said I need to buy wheels and tires for her 2015 f150 before I can by tires for my truck.

With the old generation, 250's with the snow plow prep would sit level (assuming they had 2" rear blocks) while the 350's would still have rake. Apparently on these trucks, the blocks are the same.
