Do 37" tires fit stock?? 2020 Ford F250 - Super Duty Build | Part 5
Рет қаралды 56,237
4 жыл бұрынWill 37" tires fit on a stock 2020 F250 Truck?
NOPE!! Well... actually they fit in the rear. They could fit in the front with enough cutting and trimming. Fitting 35" or larger tires requires aftermarket wheels or wheel spacers. With stock wheels your tires will rub on the sway bar and potentially brake lines. Not good!
Aftermarket wheels are wider and offer greater backspacing (push the tire out from the body). This helps resolve rubbing on the inside of the frame type components but increase rubbing on the bumper and fender.
With the ~4" Carli coil springs installed up front the tires clear the fender at ride height. However, they will rub when the suspension is compressed so additional trimming will be required. The Carli bump stop drop will help limit compression travel which is important for gaining additional clearance for the larger tires.
Stay tuned for upcoming video showing the process of trimming for these tires...

Great video and content..I have the same truck and Carli is coming out with their coil over for my 7.3 vs going with the diesel set up. Im on the fence on this truck...I always go 37 12.50 20's, but on this truck I think Ill try some 295 65 R20's on stock wheels Typically a 35.3" tall tire x 11.6-12" depending on manufacture. Looking forward to more videos..Subscribed

I don't think there is enough advantage for a true "coilover" vs keeping the spring / shock type suspension setup. The biggest bummer with coilovers is rebuilding the shocks. These "performance" shocks are good for 20-50k miles typically between rebuilds. Removing coilover shocks means your truck will be on jack stands for a week or more while waiting to have shock rebuilt. Where removing a standard shock is relatively easy and you can install your factory shock while shipping the shock for rebuild. The diesel springs ride noticeably better than the factory springs (gas truck) due to the massive drop in spring rate. I'm sure they are even more plush on diesel truck. You gain about .5-1" more height on the gas trucks vs diesel. I do think staying close to stock tire size is best if you don't want to regear the axles. Thanks for watching!

I recall your reply comments on another KZfaq video.....thanks! Check out 285 / 75R - 18 tires.......more sidewall than the 295 / 65R - 20...therefore, more comfortable on pavement and off-road. I have the Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac 285 / 75R - 18 tires on an older Super Duty.......GREAT tire for both mud and snow...decent lugs with siping. The Interco TrXus tire looks great too......but it is wider than the Goodyear.....wide is good for sand, but not for snow. I need a a tall narrow tire for mud and snow instead of a tall wide tire for mud and sand......although the Interco TrXus does have good siping on the lugs. The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac 285 / 75R - 18 tire is 35.1 inches high and only 11.2 inches wide. I would consider 37 inch tall tire if it was 12 inches or less wide.....not available.

2.5"-3.5" should be fine. Take a look at our video on how to fit the tires. We show where you'll need to trim. The reason the tires fit with lift is that the bump stops are lowered essentially limiting how far the tire can compress into the fenders. Make sure the wheels you choose don't push the tires too far out. Carli Suspension makes excellent components and has answers to many questions. Hope that helps!

It has nothing to do with "lifting" rather... you need to "limit" the suspension compression travel. Otherwise, the tires will contact the body when the suspension fully compresses. We have many videos showing our build and parts used. You do need to increase wheel offset (push tires out) to clear the frame (we have zero offset 8.5" wheels) and bumpstop spacer (to reduce compression travel). Adding "lift" with springs is mostly for looks or function if you need the clearance off road (like how we use our truck). Hope that helps

Correct. Factory wheel offset will NOT work for 37s. Tires will rub the frame. These wheels are 17x8.5" with 0mm offset. You need to push the tires out further from the body to clear the frame with oversized tires. Wider wheels & tires will require additional offset and may require body cutting depending on diameter.

Everybody and their mom has put the Carli 2.5" (3.5") kits on their 2020 F250/F350 with 37" tires with no issue. Some get a tiny bit of rub on the sway bar and radius arms and a few say they need to trim a tiny bit in wheel well area. Not sure why you are having such a hard time.

Full size crowd is all about looks and bling. Many don't care about rubbing. Fewer think about a full size spare. That stuff matters for how we use the truck!

@@TruckCamper I don't disagree. But you were emphatic that 37" tires "Do NOT fit" when most people probably believe a tiny bit of rubbing means they do fit. They don't fit if you plan on actually doing some real off roading. From what I've heard though, the Carli torsion sway bar and radius arms both provide the needed extra room so they do fit. I don't plan on jumping my truck (haven't even received the truck yet!) or anything more than light trail off road so I think I'll be okay?

@@suburbanhobbyist2752 Thanks for clarifying. This video was to answer if they fit stock. Answer is no. Lifted yes with trimming depending on width and wheel.

You need different wheel offset. We run a 17x8.5" wheel with Zero offset. This essentially pushes the tire out from the frame giving greater clearance for the larger diameter at full steering angle. Also tires that are 12.5" wide or less fit much easier. We have many videos showing our build as well if you want more ideas.

Not advisable going with that wide of a tire unless wheels are at least 8" wide. Offset will be the other challenge... factory wheels have limited offset meaning much more likely to rub the frame. Proper wheels and tires are important for safety and performance.
