2007 f150 4x4 and want to run 28/70/17's what is needed?

[bamaRed]

do i have to do a leveling kit on the front or no? i dont remember if it will clear or not. any info would be great. thanks :banana:

Im guessing you meant 285,s?You might encounter some running on the lower valence.Id suggest a leveling kit[turn torsion bars] just in case

 

[bamaRed]

yeah, that is what i ment, and i think your correct. so i might just stay with the stock size just for now. thanks



couldnt i use these?
255-75-17

i think the stockers said 265/70/17 shouldnt be to much of a differance besides width right?

 

[fiveohpoepoe]

255-75-17 should be fine.I meant to say "rubbing",not running.

sweet, just found a great deal on 4 BFgoodrich mud ta for 319.00 and 130 shiping. not a bad price
thanks

Not bad for BFG m/t,s.Get pricey[all do anyway] once you hit 285 and up.Of course Im looking for 305,s[16"]

well i seen the ones i wanted on ebay, for all 4 right at 310.00 and 124 for shipping. then went to tire rack to check on spec;s, and they had them for 97 each. so i would rather get them from there to make sure there not blems ya know. oh well. so i paid right at 490.00 shipped. not bad.
and man, those your looking for would be sweet, i just dont want to lift mine right now.

you can run 33x12.50/18 on a stock ride height 4wd with no issues. 35x12.50/18 require a leveling kit. I own an 04 Screw FX4 done all the research for this.

 

[bamaRed]

but dont the fx4 have f250 suspention in the front? i thought they rode higher than the regular 4x4 150's, remember now, i have an 07 non fx4.

they fit on Lariat's too. All i have is coil springs in the front. Just do the math for the 17" rims to equal that same size tire or close too.

got mine installed, and they work sweet! and are a great deal! tirerack.com hooked me up big time!!!
