I have a 2011 F250 4x4 and in the market for new tires. Does anybody know if I can fit 35's or should I go with a 33 inch tire?

It has the factory 20 in wheel on it.

With a leveling kit a 35" tire will fit fine. Stock it may rub in the front a little.

Pretty sure you can fit 35s stock. A buddy of mine has a leveling kit with 37s and they look great.

I think I'm going to go with the Nitto Mud Grappler 35/12.5/20

Would it look best with the leveling kit?

I'm a big fan of the leveling kits, but not a fan of those Nittos.

I like those a lot. The mud grapplers are just too much for a daily driver. I also love the BFG KM2s

I have 18s on my truck but I really like my Goodyear Duratracs. Ride good and not loud.

I have a 2011 with 18"s. I have 34.75 inch toyo open country's. No leveling kit and they don't rub. Did not get much mileage out of them. 33000.

You can run 35's easily with a leveling kit (which I recommend).

33's will clear easily stock

I wouldn't run 35's stock. You'll probably have some rubbage when turning and hitting bumps at the same time. Alot of people forget to account for suspension flex while turning.

I suggest bfg km2's or bfg all terrains if it's a daily driver. Copper Discoverer ST's are also a very good all terrain tire that will hold up well on that heavy arse truck. Keep em balanced and rotated.

ETA: I know a guy running 35" KM2's on an F350 single wheel diesel and he is getting very good mileage out of them. I think he's at 50k right now on the same set. Religiously rotates them.
