2003 King Ranch F250 NEED HELP!
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 01-14-03 AT 08:13 PM (EST)]We just got an 03 F250 King Ranch FX4. I was wanting to put larger tires than the 285's we have on it now. Does neone know the dimension's of these wheels? I know nothing about superduties.

Did the truck come with 285's? Stock tires would be 265's.
You can go up to a 295 fairly safely, and that will give you a nice lift and fill out the wheel wells nicely compared to the stock 265's. Anything over 295's and you'll likely encounter rubbing problems without the addition of a levelling kit.
As for your wheels, they are 16X7. 16" in diameter by 7" wide. They are a hub-centric design with a 8X170mm bolt pattern, specific to '99 and up Superduties. Anything beyond ~295-16's will require new rims, as the stock SD rims are too narrow.
There is lots of good info in the FAQ section. If you're new to SD's, take the time to browse around in there, you'll be amazed how much good info is right at your finger tips.

>can i fit 295/75/16? 295/65/16? or 295/85/16?
Either 295/75-16 (slightly taller and wider) or I believe the BFG's are 295/70-16's (roughly the same overall diameter, slightly wider) will fit. I don't think you'll find any other sizes. Either size isn't much taller than your current 285's and less than 1/2" wider, I'd question whether it's worth it until your current tires need replacement.
Again, there's lots of good info on this and everything else in the FAQ section. Check it out!
