Question How big can I go???

Hello everyone, I'm new to this site and to customizing my new F-250. I am trying to find out the largest tire I can put on my 2004 F-250 4x4 Crew Cab without any lift or new wheels or anything. I've been looking at 33's and 35's. Will they clear? Thanks

I know 33"s will fit, and look good. I believe you can get 35"s to fit, but dont expect to use the suspension a lot, for it will rub and bind pretty quickly.

Make sure when you are coming to a final decision on what tire to buy, to be sure and get the correct load rating. Lots of "inch size" tires will only be a C rating, and could get overloaded if you use your truck like an F250 was meant to be used.

315/75/16 (load range D) will barely fit, so if you dont plan on a lift kit you might want to go with a shorter tire, such as a 285/75/16
