A buddy needs help on tire sizing...

MrOneEyedBoh · Jan 25, 2015

So I gotta friend that has a '14 and wants to throw some 24x14 -76, running a 35x15.50x24 tire. He said he will level it or whatever else is needed to run that size. I'm a 6.0 guy, so I'm lost here on what works etc.

If that size won't work, what's closest that will work no problem? But I think that size can be ran, with a little trimming. But whatever, thanks guys.

He said he's also possibly interested in running a Yeah.. 24x12 -44 with some 35x12.50 tires.

I'm not sure what will be needed but I'm running 22x12 and 35 12.5 and a 4 inch lift and I had to trim my bumper brackets. Id say he will need 4.5 or my guess is a 6 inch to fit that tire size and wheels.

Thanks man. Any pictures of your brackets that needed trimming?

Appreciate it

Ya I can snap a few they are the brackets that hold the bumper on the sides. I'll get a few pics and post them up.

He has a factory warranty on it still, has anyone had or heard of them denying any claims with lifted trucks if Ford doesnt do the labor? He is getting a set of PMF traction bars though.

Who makes a 35x15.50r24 tire?

MrOneEyedBoh · Jan 26, 2015

I'll ask him tomorrow. Hell mind as well join... I tell him to pop in. No need for me to be the middle man.

Thanks bro for posting this, so I have a 2014 f250 ccsb. After talking to my dealer and being told they would deny me of any warranty claim if I added a full suspension lift I decided to just level it and go with a wider tire and offset. Was looking for a -76 but I think that might be to much stress on bearings etc. so my question is with a 2.5 or 3 inch level and the pmf traction bars with a block, can I clear a 35x 12.50x22 on a 22x12 -44 offset rim. I'm okay with trimming bumper brackets and that wheel well liner. Thanks in advanced!

MrOneEyedBoh · Jan 26, 2015

That's him fellas /\ , so I'm backing out.

I think it will be alright on a 3inch you will forsure have to trim but it shouldn't be to awful bad.

I think the 12 wides will fit fine with the 3" kit and 35s. Minor trimming most likely. There is no way 14 wides and 35s are going to fit without a whole lot of lift. If you need wheels and/or the pmf stuff give me a shout man, I can take care of you.

MrOneEyedBoh · Jan 26, 2015

I referred him to you Josh.

I know will at Rudy's has a 2.5" level with 22x12 -44 Mavericks on 35s that he did minimal trimming to fit.

Only part I had to trim was the inner fender well, and at the bottom of the fender. When I put them on at first I wasn't so sure if they were going to fit or not, but they did.
