I have an '84 F150 longbed 4x4 and am thinking about getting 13 inch tires. Will these tires fit without a suspension lift or anf fender trimming? Thanks

 

What do you mean by 13" tires? That would be the rim size of say a Honda Civic or a light weight trailer. Are you sure that is what your looking for? If it was a Typo and your looking into 33" tires,well thats a different story,(and would probably look and perform better on your truck). 33" tires should fit but will be limited in their travel and clearance. I would suggest at least a 2" lift to accomadate the 33" meats.

If you mean 31. No Problem. That is what I have on my 94. 33's might need a little lift, but not sure.

Hey Jeff,

What do you think I could go to on my '82 F150 2WD? How wide and how tall? (I know I need to change out my 2.73 rear first, but I'm tryin' to plan ahead.)

Thanks,

Slik

There's alot of people in my area, that have 2wd 1/2ton's and the largest i've seen is 31X10.50. The look really good on a 2wd w/o any lift!!!

 

Looks and power; no off-roading

I would go with something like 30 x 9.5 15 BFG All Terrains with 3.55 gear ratio. Or a 31 x 10.5 15 with 3.73 gears. Both would fit well on any 15 x 8 Wheel. your RPMs would be about 2600 at 65 MPH. You should be well into your power band at that range,but still get fair MPG.You could also go to say 4.10 gears and get an after market overdrive for the HWY(about $2000).That would be a sweet set up. It actualy gives you OD in all gears.Just something about as your planning ahead.

Thanks Jeff,

It gives me a lot better idea of what direction I should be looking.
