I got tired of looking this up over and over again on Ford website, so created a table.

Hope this helps!

No I don't want to change my wheels, hence the need for spacers. According to the dealer, a 35x12.5 won't work on stock wheels b/c the offset is not great enough, which will cause rubbing issues. I've run 12.5 wide tires on 7" wide rims in the past without issues. So that's not a concern really. Dealer says 35x12.5's will rub unless I buy wheels with the correct offset.

Dealer is correct you'd need a spacer. If you want to avoid wheel spacers you can run the following:

  • 35x11.50R17
  • 285/75R17
  • 255/85R17 (the "pizza cutter")
  • 35x10.50R17 (rare)
  • 290/75R17 (very rare)

Ultimately depends on how important that 12.5" width is to you.

I also avoid wheel spacers at all cost, and once my factory KO2s are warn down I'll probably be getting a set of 35x11.50R17. If I were buying today I'd be buying the Falken Wildpeak R/T, but it'll depend what's available when the time comes.

yeah we talked about that, just seems you're pretty limited to what you can get in a 35x11.5x17

Yeah it's fairly limited. The best option in that size is definitely the Toyo Open Country A/T III. In my opinion the second best All-Terrain tire on the market after the BFG KO2.

I would also consider the 285/75R17. That size is just shy of 34 inches while 35x11.5R17 tires are just shy of 34.5-inches. Half an inch difference isn't substantial enough to invest in wheel spacers in my opinion, and there are a lot more tires with that size.

Thanks for that info, that's definitely helpful in making a decision. I do love the Toyo's. I had the A/T II on a truck a few years ago and the new A/T III looks sick. I'm lifting it 2" so I don't want to go with too short of a tire. Might look silly. In the end I may have to just suck it up and get new wheels. If I can find someone local to buy my stockers that would help offset the cost.

FYI— I've updated the main post with the charts for the 2023 and 2024 model years.

If you’re looking for something to do, you could add wheel weight to that list. It’s helpful to know the weights when choosing bigger wheel/tire sizes and you want the weight close to stock.

Would love to, but don't have access to all of the tires/wheels.

There was weights floating around the internet in various forum posts, but as I was putting this sheet together I noticed that there was very little consistency between those numbers. So... obviously some of them are wrong—just have no way to verify myself.
