Offroad Tires? Max tire Size?

[FLOffroad]

I wouldn't trust those results, photoshop can be so deceiving. Also, that only accounts for your tires going forward, it's when you start turning the wheel that most problems occur.

Ya totally. I cant believe no-one has explored this issue yet, with adding bigger tires. (did you get the pun? "noone Explored this issue yet")

 

[FLOffroad]

Wow, that was a bad one. Puns are pretty fun, but I hardly ever actually reflexively laugh at them.

I am ordering some 265/70R17 General Grabber AT2 to beef up the tires on this truck

If those are to replace the 245/65R17 then I'd reconsider that move. When I punched in the two sizes on a tire calculator, a warning came back saying; Diameter Difference: 6.56%. Anything over 3.0% is NOT recommended. By the way, welcome to the Forum. :wavey:

i have the limited with the 20's - my parts guy at the ford dealership suggested these:

im almost tempted though to get some cheap steelies for the of road tires instead and have the luxury of changing to my original tires that came with the vehicle for road trips, etc.

That would be a very good move - especially considering that using the 20"s offroad isn't the best, due to the infinitely small sidewall your tires will have.

Good luck.

Guarantee you won't fit 33's....34's barely fit in my F150 which is stock with 32s and I added some clearance in the front

I second the "Let us know how it works out!"

The picture you did with the 33" tires looks great.
