AboutBrett Harrell Expertise I can answer questions about tire brand applications without Brand bias or company loyalties. Any bias that I may have is based on practical and real world experiences. I will answer questions about tire sizes, wear, speed ratings, load indexes as well as most other questions about passenger, light truck, tractor along with RV/trailer & medium truck tires. Please include the type of drivetrain for vehicles: 2WD, 4WD, AWD and if the vehicle is lifted or lowered. If you have a tractor question please indicate if it's 2WD, Front Assist or 4WD.

Question What is the maximum size LT tire I can put on my 2002 F150 Supercrew with te FX4 package.... 17 in wheels. I have BFG AT KO LT285 70 17, and would like to go a little larger in a mud terrain if possible. Thanks,
Answer Todd,
The size choices for 17" rims are limited. However companies such as Pro Comp and Mickey Thompson probably offer the most choices. As for what size, the tire dealer that you use should be able to provide with the best fitment for your truck.
