Mechanic Tip
Cold Inflation Calibration Rule: Tire pressure drops roughly 1 PSI for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit drop in ambient temperature. Furthermore, driving even 1 mile generates internal friction that raises tire pressure by 3 to 5 PSI above true ambient resting level. Never set your tire pressure to the "Max PSI" molded on the tire sidewall, which indicates the maximum mechanical burst rating of the casing. Always calibrate tire pressure when the vehicle has rested for at least 3 hours, matching the cold PSI specified on the yellow-and-white driver-side door jamb placard.

Ford F-150 tire size is not one number. A 2025 XL 4x2 can wear 245/70R17. An XLT 4x4 often wears 275/65R18. Lariat and Platinum commonly wear 275/60R20, the stamp this site opens on. Tremor wears 275/70R18. Raptor wears 315/70R17, or 37x12.50R17 on the 37-inch package. The door sticker is the only one that knows which truck you have.

Stock sizes by trim

These rows are the current 14th-gen (2021+) North American packages that show up on Ford and tire-shop trim lists. 4x2 and 4x4 of the same trim do not always share a size. FX4 packages often switch to an LT265/70R18. When the sticker says LT, match the LT.

Why the sticker beats the chart

F-150 is why "tire size by vehicle" is a weak search and "F-150 tire size" is a strong one. The badge covers a half-ton, a Tremor and a Raptor. Shops that "always mount 275/60R20 on F-150s" get the XL and the Raptor wrong in the same afternoon.

This is not a fitment database

A Ford F-150 can leave the factory on more than one size. Export markets, mid-year packages and previous-owner plus-sizes all disagree with a chart. Read the driver-door placard. Match width, aspect ratio and rim together.

Swapping to a different size

275/60R20 is 33.0 inches. 275/65R20 is 34.1, the comparison people type as 275/65R20 vs 275/60R20. 315/70R17 is 34.4. 37x12.50R17 is a true 37. From a stock 20-inch Lariat to a 35 is a 6% class change. From a Raptor 315 to a 37 is a smaller step than people think, because the Raptor already starts tall. The 35 vs 37 page is that pair.

Biggest tire on a stock F-150

There is no honest single answer. A stock XL 4x2 on 245/70R17 has less room than a Tremor. A Raptor is already on 35-class rubber. Stay inside about 3% of the placard diameter as a first filter, then take the truck to a shop that has done that year. We will not publish a clearance number we have not measured.
