I know the tire sizes and specs. I’m asking what will fit and what won’t, what rubs and so on?

Not exactly what you are looking for because I had 17's, but I had 315/70r17's on my F-150 and it was the perfect size with a 2.25" front leveling spacer. They equate to about a 34.5x12.7. If I had 20's I would prefer a 295/60 or 295/65. I would try like hell to fit the 65's because they look so good on the ones I've seen.

Pics of a finished truck with XXXXX would be the most helpful

I run the same with just a little rubbing. Only when I turn really tight it rubs slightly. Factory 22"

Also find Akins Ford Wild Willies on YouTube. They do alot of size comparisons and show what size fits with what level

Probably a function of back-spacing as well.

Any number of Ford F150 forums should be able to help with specific model

I got the new Toyo Open Country RT Trails a few months ago. 295/65/R20. Stock 20” wheels with 2.5” level. I love them. Super quiet and ride great. Only a very very very very very very minor rub on a full lock turn when pulling over driveway curb. Almost have to try to make it rub.

296/65r20 toyo m/ts will fit perfectly and wont rub. you can go as tall at the spec on that which iirc is 35.4 by like 11.8 or something. its the 12.5's that start to rub and places dont wanna put them on stock wheels.

35x12.5 on stock 20s with a 2" loaded strut level - they rub at full lock because of the width. They don't rub during normal operation but do if I'm backing out of a tight parking spot. You can go 35x11.5 or 295/65/20 and be fine.

I'll probably go 295/65/20 when these tires wear out.
