285/70/18 BFG KO3s on stock XLT wheels with 2” leveling kit

I wanted to share my setup in case it helps anyone else wondering if they can fit some bigger tires on stock 18” Ford wheels like I was. This is my 2023 XLT SR. The stock wheels have a +44 offset. We were able to get these to fit with very minor trimming and a 2” leveling kit. No spacers necessary. The KO3s are extremely smooth and surprisingly quiet. The aggressive tread really adds to the look of the truck, in my opinion. I did a lot of research and really didn’t know if this would work without buying expensive wheels but I’m really happy with how it turned out!

Looks great!

Trimming with 285s? Dang, I was hoping to fit those Toyo 305s under my truck.

Very small amount of trimming on the lower corners of the air dam. Nothing major. Also, I’m using stock wheels with +44 offset, so it might be a different story with a different offset.
