I would suspect you could probably squeeze 35s in there with little to no rubbing, but I wouldn't want to go any bigger than that, would probably start rubbing pretty bad. My brother has a 97 F250 with 4" suspension lift and 35s fill his wheel wells nicely, no rubbing:



Thats his black truck on the right with 35" BFG A/Ts

thats what i thought, cause the tires i got now look soooo small on this MASSIVE truck! it will be worth a shot to try on 35's and turn full turn to look for rubbing. Thanks for the infomation. by the way, nice truck.

Thanks buddy. Yeah I would take her for a good spin with those tires too, because my 33's will not rub at full lock, but if I turn into a driveway at around 15 mph I do get a little rub. Try to give her a test of all different scenarios so you know you'll be happy with the result. Good luck!
