Tire size

2023 Ford F-150 Tremor · 5.0L V8

This decision is still open. 4 options are being compared, nothing has been ordered, and no manufacturer has been committed to. Where one option is marked as currently leaning, that's a preference at this stage — not a decision.

35-inch all-terrain tire

TBD

Researching

Why this option

35 inches sits at the largest size that doesn't demand a body lift on top of the suspension work already planned, preserving ride height proportions closer to stock geometry.

What it actually cost

Not purchased yet — no cost recorded.

Cost, installation notes, and a verdict will be added here once this part is bought and fitted.

Open Country A/T III

Toyo

Researching

Why this option

Strong wet-weather manners and a quieter highway ride than most aggressive all-terrains, which matters for a daily driver in East Tennessee rain.

Where it currently stands

Nothing decided. All three are being weighed on load range for the 6,500 lb Airstream, wet grip, and highway noise.
