F150 tire sizing

My truck came with 275/60R20 tires.
I would like to get slightly larger tires but without adding a lift kit.
The largest tire size recommended without a lift is (you guessed it) 275/60R20.
I find this hard to accept. Surely I can get away with slightly larger tires without a modification?

I put slightly larger tires on my 250 20+ years ago with no lift and have used that size ever since.

You didn't mention what F150 and your profile only shows super duty. 275/60R20 shows as roughly 33x11. My experience, and what others wrrite, is 33x11 is as big as you can fit on a F150 with no lift. On my last F150 i did a 2" front lift for 34x11.5 and that was good. 34s would rub bad with no lift.

I am unable to update my signature to include the 2024 F-150 Lariat 4WD crew cab.
The system tells me I have too many lines in the signature. I have shortened it to no avail. Others have longer sigs.
I have seen other unlifted F-150s with slightly oversize tires. But they may not have 20" rims
