Tire Sizes

I've got 31x10.5 tires on 15x7 rims on my stock 1990 F-150 4x4. Two questions. 1. Will 33x12.5 tires fit on my rims? 2. I'm going to add a body lift, probably 3", will that me enough room for the bigger tires without any problems?

Thanks

No it won't w/o pulling the sidewalls really bad and "rounding" your tread.

you dont need a lift to fit the tires, although it will look better with a lift, and yea you could run those tires on those wheels, but 1. they are a tad bit narrow so the inside of the tire woul wear 2. the bacspacing is wrong so the tire would rub on the radius arm at full lock, if you get a set of 15x10's or at least 15x8's you will be happy, and it will look better with a 3 or 4 inch lift
