tire help

i think everyone is tired of hearing this but i have a 2005 f-150 lariat with 275/65/18 will a 285/65/18 fit without any clearance issues? the truck is stock with NO leveling kit and i dont really want to put one on yet. also has any one heard of the new super swamper m-16 it looks like a nice tire for the agressive look with good highway traits i think this is the winter tire i will go with.

That tire should fit fine without LK. I'm going with 305/70R18 but I've got the 2" autospring leveling kit.

Well I just ordered my tires today. I went with 285/65/18 and the guy said they will fit with no problems. He also told me that my spedo will read 1 mph slower then my traveling speed.
