Tires

I am getting ready to put new tires on my excursion. Planning on putting BFG's the KO's on it. What is the biggest I can go without a lift or leveling kit. The excursion is all factory. I have a F250 with 315 BFG's. That is what I would like to put on the excursion. Is it possible without a lift. And I don't mind a little scrubbing. My F250 scrubs a little on the leaf springs. Any help would be great.

You can do 315s if you want. They will certainly rub. And with the Exucrison being lower than your 250, there is probably gonna be some wheel well trimming involved.

Why don't you pull them off your 250 and see how they fit and ride, though? I know it's a PITA but wouldn't it be worth the time if you're gonna fork over lots of $$ on tires?

I know this may not be your answer.... directly anyway;

But I'm going to mount up some 315s on my rig sometime this next week or two (at most).... and I only have a 3" leveling shackle up front. It should give you a decent idea on how they'd fit at stock (my rear is stock, at least to give an idea).
