Ford Expedition True expeditions require additional transportation conveyances: horses, boats, cars, for example. With a towing capacity around 9,000 pounds, the Ford Expedition can tow any of these. Ford adds a new top end King Ranch model for 2008, as well as an available rear backup camera and power-retractable running boards. The Expedition is meant for utility, not posing.

If you really want to keep stock rims your gonna have to stay with in safe limits for the width of your rim. I believe mine were 7-7.5" ?
NEway you MAY find a 255/75 but I dont no .. our go with a good old A/T work truck tire 235/85.. stock on F-250 TD. I believe You will get an extra half inch or so.
Remember 255/is width
/70/ is the % of the width that is the sidewall Higth
/16. Rim DIA.
