Tire wheel question

I have a F-250 SD CC 4X4, I was wondering if the stock wheels are 16X8 if not what are they.

If they are 16X8 can I mount a 315-75-16 tire on them and not have any problems.

Yup and I've heard of people doing just that.

The stock aluminums are 16x8? I thought they were all 16x7's?

What is the largest tires you can put on a F250 4X4 without replacing the rims or getting a lift so that there is no rubbing?

I have the crome steel wheels.

I went to a tire dealer yesterday to ask that very question. I have the aluminum wheels and a 4" lift of a 2 wd reg cab. This truck sits a little higher than a 4wd F250 and a little lower than a 4wd F350. With my stock rims (16x7) I can install 285/75R16 or 305/70R16's. The biggest tire that will fit without any frame or body contact under all conditions are the 295/75R16's but you have to go to 16x8 or 16x10 rims.
