If you don't already have a spacer up front just add a 2.5" leveling kit. Your rear end should be fine.

Level and they will fit most likely. You don't need to lift the back more simply because those wheels aren't responsible for your turning. That's why the front needs to be higher. I could fit 35s under my truck right now if I never wanted to turn.

Exactly ^

Just level it or BL it and you'll be good to go! Just lifted my buds Chevy 2wd 6" and leveled it and we stuffed 37/13.50/17s under there, no rubbing after a little trimming of the front valence.

I dunno, is his a 1500? My bud has a 03 2500HD 2wd and his 345/75/16s fit fine. Don't even rub on bump

Also just noticed I said 17s earlier but he has 16" rims.

There's the difference right there. It's a 1500. 6 inches on top of a 2500 is probably like a 9-10" lift for a 1500

You think? Does 2wd make a difference on chevy's? Cuz there are 4wd F150s on this forum with 6" + Level fitting 37s

2wd are lower than the 4x4s by quite a bit. And the 2500 is like 3 inches taller than a 1500.

The real killer on the Chevy's for fitting the bigger tires is the square wheel wells. Round ones work a lot better for big tires
