Lifted?
Q: What is the largest tire that I can fit on my stock rims without a lift?
??? A: 295's are a safe bet. But some trucks with the plow package can fit 305's with minimal rubbing. Make sure the tire manufacturer says that it is okay for THEIR tire to go on the 7" rim that the Super Duty wears.

So I found this information in the tech folder. I am running LT325/65R18 Nitto Grapplers. Looking at the pic below, could you say that I am running in a lifted vehical? Sales doc doesnt specify and I am unable to contact the OO. I initially
though that the 18s are what gives it that look. The 18s appear to be factory too.

Your rear end doesn't appear to be lifted at all. You may have either a leveling kit or heavy service front springs on it though, as the nose seems a bit higher than stock which is unusual with an aftermarket front bumper (they usually make the front sit lower than stock). Look at the front springs and see if there is a donut shpard piece up above it, or post a picture of the springs themselves and the trailing arms and we can tell you if they are stock or not.

Those 18s are stock.
Looks like a stock height F-250 to me.
At the most a leveling kit. If you look at the front coils there may be a spacer on the top or the bottom. Are they factory shocks?? (all black, all metal)

OK, Here is the pic.
Measured the distance from the top of the bed rail down. 57" or 4' 9".
The funny thing is, I driven past Dodges that have an obviouse lift, and I am sitting just as high. lol

Thats a good looking truck, and for future reference when you guys try to measure lift it would make more sense to measure from the center of the hub to the bottom of the fender, its a helluva lot more accurate because not every 35" tire is the same size. Atleast thats how I do it on my Jeeps.
