Tire sizes

Hey! I have a 77 f250 4x4. It has 6 inches of lift in the rear and 4 inches of lift in the front. Right now im running 33in x 12.50 tires and they look tiny. What is the biggest 12.50 tire i could run with the lift i have without smashing my fenders?

A 35-36" tire would be about the best size for that lift setup.

I have three rigs that are lifted at least that much and 36" inch swampers. I personaly dont like the tires stuffed into the wheel wells,im sure there are some that do.Remember that not all tires measure out the same.
ranger429's black truck has the perfect tire to fender clearance to me.
