Help with tires please
3 inch leveling kit and 6-1 leafspring pack on rear. 2001 f250. Anyone know how big I can go on tires with the stock rims? Or would i better off finding 16x10 wheels with -25 offset? Im looking at 305 70 r16 if that helps. Any advice is welcome Didn't realize the can of worms I opened when i started looking into bigger tires.

Yeah 315/75R16 should fit fine. I had to trim a little from the rear of the front wheel wells to avoid rubbing during off road.
I am running 2" wheel spacers to clear the leaf springs since the tires are now 12.5 wide. Just another thing to think about.

i was actually just thinking about that I'll add some to the list. Those leaf springs are nice (until we start playing with tires) good heads up on the wheel wells also. I was going to rhino line up to the body line on the truck anyways so I'll wait til after tire fitment to start that project
