Talking Tire Size

Hi all,
I am new to the group. Just bought a 2003 F250 SD 7.3 Quad Cab yesterday. Loving it so far! Beats the hell out of driving an 03 Dodge Ram 4.7 2wd (that I traded for it).

Anyway! I was curious as to what is the biggest tires I can run on a stock height, stock wheels. Just seeing if I can get a little height as the stock tires look tiny under this truck. Also, does leveling the front allow for any bigger tires?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Brad

With a 2"-2.5" leveling kit you should be able to run 33" tires with little to no rubbing. Others will chime in soon...

It is a Lariat. Here is a picture. It already has the clearance lights, cattle guard, nerf bars that I would have wanted to add. So that saves me some money!

I put up one with pics .... but I guess they have to review it first. Now if I am keeping my stock 16" rims, they would be 33 x ?? x 16. Sorry, I am a newbie to having a truck I could actually lift and put bigger tires on. Lol.

THANKS AGAIN!
