Increasing tire size on OE wheels

Just purchased a '19 F250 w/OE Continental Contitrac M&S LT275/65R18 tires on alloy wheels. Want to swap tires for larger On/Off-Road LT325/65R18 tires without adding lift kit or changing OE wheels. Has anyone done this and know if it will cause fender/wheel well interference or increase the turning radius?

Thanks for any help you can offer!

like 99% of people on this forum stick with the same size tires Ford supplied. No need to damage your suspension or hurt your load capacity by throwing on bro dozer tires. Ya know.


hahaha Just kidding. It's been done many times by many people. Maybe these threads will help. happy hunting

Thanks for your feedback, had set of 305/265/18 Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT on/off road tires install this week and the truck rides better, has 2-3" of added clearance and looks great too. There are no clearance issues at full turn left and right, no problem whatsoever at this point. Will check off road this weekend, but don't expect any problems. Thanks again for your input, appreciate the links also!
