Tire Size for leveled ST

[Derick Sullins]

I am going to put a 1.5 in leveling kit on the ST and was wondering what size tire I could put on it without rubbing. I've searched the site and haven't been able to find no other thread that could point me in the right direction although I know it's out there some where. I was looking at a set of Mastercraft Courser MT in 285/75/16 if anybody knows how bad these would rub of if they would rub at all please let me know.





Thanks

Derick

You're probably better off with 265/75/16. This post below might help some with some answers.

I've had 265/75 16's on for a few months. Only rubbing I get (stock height) is when I crank the steering wheel hard left.

I had Michelin 265/70R16 LTX and lowered 2 inches.... no rubbing at all

285/15-16's will fit if you lift the front and rear both 1.5" but you will need wheel spacers on the rears or they will rub the inner fender, assuming you are keeping the stock wheels. You might be able to get away with not lifting the rear but you will still need spacers.



Here is my old '05 with a 1.5" torsion twist and Warrior rear shackles with 265/75-16's. The rears rubbed just a teeny bit on the inside but not enough that you'd notice.
