    Default Biggest non rubbing tires 2021 f150?

    Cut/Blew a tire out today responding to a fire alarm . Now prematurely looking at a new set of 4. 4x4. Came with 275-65-R18 and I want to go up in size but dont think I am altering suspension or leveling as I drive on the road 6-800 miles a week.

    Any idea what the biggest size is without rubbing? I am thinking 285/60/R18 but saw somewhere suggest 305/60/R18.

    Any insight is appreciated.

    285/60R18 is .5" wider and .6" shorter than 275/65/R18. 285/70R18 is about 1" taller and .5" wider than what you have now.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    275/70/18 is what I run and I like the size of them on the truck.

    295/70/18 may rub without a level. May rub off road even with a level.

    Thanks. Trying to figure it all out.
    I was looking at toyo O/C AT 3 and the 285/60/R18 120SXL is $308/tire and 65k warranty and the 285-65R18 are $400/tire with a 50k mile warranty….

    P-tire vs LT tire? The 65's are probably a load range D or E and 10ply meant for a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. 60's are meant for a passenger truck/car/SUV.

    Look at goodyear ultraterrains at discount tire. Like mine so far

    275/70 18. Bilstine 5100 one notch up from stock. Still has rake and I don’t look like a high schooler with a squat when I hook up a trailer

    275/70r18 is a 33.6” tire and will keep your fuel mileage pretty in check

    285/70R18 is a 34.6” tore and comes standard on the “tremor “ models. Only issue with this size is the small amount of companies that produce them.

    295/70r18 is a 35X12R18. The width is what will kill you and rub with this tire without a leveling kit.
