Tire size for 6" Lift!!!

[Boise,Id]

I have a 2008 F350 with a 6" inch pro comp lift. I was wondering if anybody has suggestion for what kind and size of tires i should run. i was thinking 36/15.50/20 mickey thompson mtz. what do you think? To Big? I Also need to find a nice set of wheels. Any suggestions? Thanks

you can easily clear 37's

heck you can clear 37's with a leveling kit on a 08

I dont think you should go with anything smaller than a 37.

Thanks! If i run 37" what do you think my mpg will be? Also any suggestions on increasing mpg without voiding the factory warrenty?

I would go 37's. You might be able to squeeze a 38x13.50 but there would be some rubbing. I ran 38x15.50's on my 6" for a few days while I was waiting to do my 8" and I had to be pretty damn careful to not munch a fender. Depends on the truck but I would say 13-14 mpg on the interstate, 9-10 mpg around town. There are some tuners/programmers that claim better mpg without deleting the DPF. There may be some that do with little or no power increase but you won't find a high hp tuner or programmer that will get you better mpg without deleting the DPF. A high hp tune generates more soot which will clog your DPF much faster resulting in more frequent regen which in turn reduces mpg.

i would say 37's, but ive seen 40's done.

if your worried about mpg's invest in a tuner. should help some

I run 37 and they roll just great!

I'm running 37's with a Pro Comp 6" w/radius arms lift. I have had no issues with rubbing so far.

Mine are 37x13.5x24 Toyo MT on American Force Rims. No problems and big tires!

Agreed 37 I think anything bigger would look dumb but that my 2 cents
