Chart of maximum tire size
This is a work in progress. I will update as new information comes. PM me to get faster response.
So far it goes as follows (If anything is wrong, let me know and I'll change it):
*DISCLAIMERS*
*Depending on vehicle age and history of driving conditions/habits stock suspensions may have 'sagged' causing tire clearance issues. As a result, the said tire sizes are not guaranteed to fit every application listed.It is to be used as a guideline for choosing tires, not the 'be all end all'.
*Wheel Backspacing/offset DOES MATTER but this a GENERAL chart. some trucks my differ, modify at your own risk!!!*
*R-F, fx4me, Redneckstone, and the other contributing members take NO responsibility in the harming of your vehicle*
01-09
XLT 4X4, FX4, Level II, EDGE 2wd & 4X4(Sport newer models)(mild T-bar crank always recommended for leveling purposes, always remember to get an alignment) ***Recommended to do Pre Key mod to the lowered new trucks***

XLT 4x4, XLT Offroad, Trailhead(mild T-bar crank always recommended for leveling purposes, always remeber to get an alignment)(may want to also replace T-bars do to T-bar sag)

93-97 (Consult before adding tires, this is the tricky year)(may also need lift in rear depending on spring sag)
4x4 & 2WD (The 2wd and 4x4 front springs are same length and the shocks also.)

What fits. What hits.
KEY
A = STOCK VEHICLE
B = MINOR FENDER TRIMMING
C = MAJOR FENDER TRIMMING/FLARES
D = SUSPENSION LIFT (IN.)
E = BODY LIFT (3-IN.)
* = PROPER WHEEL OFFSET CRUCIAL

Yah but it doesn't go that indepth. It does cover a lot but I think we're looking for a lil more.
Here's my help.
98-00 4WD *stepside*: 33s
Is there a difference in XLT vs. other models? Mine is XLT.

You could go to a local maw and paw tire place and see if they will let you test fit a couple tires on your wheels to see which ones will fit and which ones won't.
Stone----> Damn good work there, buddy. I'm going to compile all of these and add them to my page on my site and add a link to it on my Myspace page.
