will 33 inch tires fit on base? Or is that too much for daily driver

I'm definitely not the tire expert here, unfortunately. I know there's a number of tire threads here which is how I learned that the 32s will fit, but I'll defer to the experts in this forum!

My question is should I put 32s on when taking delivery or should I suffer with 30s until I can get some better take offs?

What brand and model tire are folks considering as their Base upgrade (assuming a 32" 265/75-16)? Goodrich KO2?

Federal coragia 37x12.50x17r

LT285/75/16 Nitto Ridge Grappler A/T. Recommended by a fellow Marine who works at a local Discount Tire, based on his customers' reviews. If 33's are too big I may back off an inch but I'll have seen someone experiment on this site before I take delivery.

I'm looking at the General Grabber ATX (265/75/16) - the same thing as in the Black Diamond, just not the 17" rims. He'll, down the line I may actually swap out to the 17" steelies if a BD owner does a takeoff.

In the engineering world, we often leave a "hairy armpit" in our proposals to give clients the opportunity to criticize and give their inputs to the design / plans without drastically altering scope. Think a misplaced control switch, difficult to reach button or ugly exterior choice. It seems Ford has left such a hairy armpit in their lineup to push us up a few trim levels: the 4 door base model without sasquatch.

Bingo, I've done that with great success with the U.S. Air Force and major airlines in both program reviews and proposals. Ford however, I think it is just standard automotive packaging ploys, every car manufacturer does it.

I've spent many a week in Paris on business, try the Paris subways at rush hour, we were packed in like sardines. There was only visibility from the neck up, so I never noticed
