Max tire size with stock wheels and no lift?

Hello, I'm a new user. I've tried the search feature, but haven't had any luck in trying to find what the is the max tire size with stock alloy wheels and no lift kit. The truck is a 2000 F250 crew cab 4X4 V10.

Thank you.

You need to check your front spring code. You can run 285, 295, or 305/75/16 tires. Most report little tire rub or mounting problems. I would suggest the 285s without any form of a lift.

I ran 33x12.5x16.5 with minimal rubbing. I added a shackle lift and I have no problems now.

Thanks for the information. Do you possibly have a link to where I could find out more about the shackle lift?

i'm running 285s with no problems. They look much better that the stock 265s but I wish I would have went with 295s.
