Are 34” tires the same as 285s?? This is where I’m getting confused
Check out this page on the Tire Rack site that explains what those numbers mean.
Tire Rack - How Do I Read My Tire Size On My Sidewall?
Will help you understand how tire height and width are calculated.

Getting new tires soon. Currently have 275/55/20s on my 2016 F-150 (4x4)…


I have a 2016 F-150 as well. Put a level kit on mine a set of 275/60/20 BFG TAko2s on mine. No rub, handles great, I love the way package looks too. Doubt you would be disappointed with this setup.

I went 305/55/20 RTs on factory rims. Little bit taller than 33” high and 12” wide.

Check out this website and you can compare and actually see the size differences. Calculator Linky

Only pic I could find…the day I put 1.5” level and tires on.


Never mind, found one more.

Yea I love the two tone trucks.

I’m sitting here building a baby doll bed for my daughter and taking a sip break and glanced at my truck. I’m just realizing my tires are 285/60/R20. Definitely had 305/55/R20 on my 2017 F150 with a 1.5” level, though.

Cooper Discoverer AT3 are the best AT tires out there.

American company
American made

But it’s a premium tire, so they aren’t cheap.

I recommend a 34” tire.

I put 285/60r20 on my 2018 and was pleased with it. Not overly big. It’s the way I think the off-road type packages should come
