I have a 2010 F350 with 2" spacers up front (not sure if thats considered 2.5" lift but the FEI spacer measured 2") and 1" in the rear with stock rims. I found a smoking deal on a used set of toyo 37x13.5 20s. I have read they will fit a f250 with 2.5" level. Will the 2" on a F350 clear the 37's?

I had planned on going with Toyo 35s because i do tow & race occasionally but I the price is under $1200 and the tires have 78% tread left.

Heres the truck with stock 275/65 20s.

It depends on the wheels. Stock wheels, I'm pretty sure they will rub. Probably not too bad, just barely. You will have to pull the fender liner back though.

Going to keep the stock rims, not real worried about pulling back fender liner.

i know it will effect fuel mielage, other than that any issues?

I have a IDP tunes 5" flo pro and AFE intake.

They are actually 13.5" wide, my mistake.

They'll definitely rub the radius arms. Not sure about other places. 2" might not be enough. I would hate to tell you it will work and you end up having to resale the tires or buy suspension parts.

I fit 35s on stock 18s with the truck lowered. With a lift they should fit. They may rub the radius arms a little.

I turned the wheel to full lock and measured from the "flat" tread to the radius arm. It measures ~2" best i could tell. The tires would rub only at full lock or close to it right? Is that anything to worry about?

Are the F350 front springs the same height as the 250?

I do work the truck some and cant give that up. Anyone have pictures they can post up or give any other input it would be greatly appricated.

Your best bet is to take the truck over and ask if you can put the rims on your truck and drive it. That's the only real way to know if they'll fit.

Like Matt, my truck cleared 35's lowered, on 20's. And with the leveling kit I had, it would have cleared 37's.

I have a friend running the exact setup. 37x13.50 toyos on factory 20s. He had to barely pull fender back, and it rubs just a little on the arms. Looks awesome too!!

I waited too long to decide and the toyos were sold. So now I'm thinking nitto trail grapplers in either 37 or 35s. Since the 37 nittos are 12.5 wide I'm more confident they won't rub as bad. However is the "look" of 37s worth an extra $600-700? And how much performance will I loose. Decisions decisions

Pictures are helpful if anyone has any.

35's. Then if you go to an aftermarket 20" wheel down the road, you'll have more options without having to worry much about offset or adding lift.

I took more pictures today. Stock tires measure about 33.75. You guys think 35s will look good?
I plan on keeping the stock rims.

I ran some nitto 325/60r20s on my stock 20s when I had my 2.5in level kit. They only ever rubbed the radius arm at full lock. Never caused any damage to the tire and just rubbed the paint off of the radius arm.

uga33 has that Nitto Trail Grappler (295/65/20) I was referring to. He really likes it and it's a perfect tire for a leveled truck with factory 20's.

Thanks guys I really like the looks of those trucks! I want a mud tire and the only ones I found in the 325/60 is BFG KM2 ($559) and Duratracs ($475)

Id like to see a leveled truck with the nitto 295/65 20s. I'd like to see how they compare looks wise in width. I was kinda thinking the 295/65 may look to narrow.


Any of you have pictures of your trucks with the different tires from the front?
