Trim and wheel package decide which of these your truck actually has. The placard inside the driver's door jamb is the authority for your specific vehicle, and it also carries the cold inflation pressures that go with each size.

F-250 Super Duty tire sizes — frequently asked
What size tires does a Ford F-250 Super Duty take?
The 2005–2026 Ford F-250 Super Duty was sold from the factory on 245/75R17, 275/70R18, 275/65R20, on 17x7.5, 18x8, 20x8 wheels. Which one your truck has depends on its trim and wheel package, so check the placard inside the driver's door jamb — that sticker lists the sizes your specific truck left the factory on, together with the correct cold inflation pressures.
How tall is a 245/75R17 tire in inches?
About 31.5 inches overall. The sidewall is 7.2 inches tall (70 per cent figures are of the section width, not the wheel), the section width is 9.6 inches, and it turns roughly 641 revolutions per mile. Those are the numbers to compare against when you are sizing up.
What is the biggest factory tire on a F-250 Super Duty?
Across 1999–2026 the largest factory size on record is 275/65R20 at about 34.1 inches tall, and the smallest is 245/75R17 at about 31.5 inches. If your truck came on the smaller size, the larger one is a known-good fitment for the same platform — which makes it the safest first upsize, though offset and trim still differ.
Can I put bigger tires on my F-250 Super Duty without a lift?
Usually one size, around 3 per cent more overall diameter, fits on stock suspension. Past that you are into trimming the front valance or fitting a levelling kit, and the limiting factor is often the wheel offset rather than the tire height — a wider tire on a lower offset hits the fender liner at full lock long before diameter becomes the issue. Work out the exact clearance before you buy.
Do bigger tires affect the F-250 Super Duty's speedometer?
Yes, proportionally. A tire 3 per cent taller than stock makes the speedometer read about 3 per cent low, so an indicated 70 is really 72, and the odometer under-counts by the same amount. It also shifts the effective gear ratio, which on a truck that tows is felt as softer acceleration and more downshifting on grades.
What wheels fit a F-250 Super Duty?
Wheel fitment starts with the bolt pattern, then hub bore, then offset. All three for every F-250 Super Duty generation are on the bolt pattern page for this truck, along with the stud thread and lug torque. The factory wheel sizes on this page tell you what widths and diameters the truck was engineered around.
