04 xlt, decided, tire ?

I think ive decided tires will be my upgrade for now. Have to watch the cash. I have the o4 xlt 4x4 reg cab. I have no leveling kit. I want tires that set the truck up a little more and fill out the fender wells better vertically. Width is not as much of a concern. I am also looking for an agressive tread short of mudders.

What size tire can i go to without clearance problems, im not sure what 33 inch tires measurements are in terms of 235 75 17 type of deal. that is my current size

Thanks very much

The BFGoodrich A/Ts and Nitto Terra Grappler are widely used on a lot of new F150s. Most tire companies have an all-terrain tire. You might want to visit some of the more popular web sites that sell tires like dicounttires.com, tirerack.com, tires.com or any other you can find by doing a search. These sites usually have a calculater to tell you overall height and width. I went with Michelin because I like them the best, but they dont have an agressive tread like I think you are looking for.
