Beautiful view, I've been to Idaho and Montana a couple times and always ready to go back. Yours isn't leveled or lifted??

I have a level and raptor wheels with toyo at 2 35x12.5. They fit fine with no rubbing.

Yes, leveled. But OEM tires are 32". These are 34". Like Novo said, you can get a bigger tire in there. The caveat is, that each person has to decide how much clearance he'll need. I chose the LT285/75R17 Toyo AT2s because, as you can see by my photo, my truck is no parking lot queen. *I NEED CLEARANCE*. I've heard/read that normal every day driving and light off-road with the 35" proves to be no problem. I however, need to be able to completely stuff the tire to the maximum extent of the suspension (and I used it several times, just on that one pass (Imogene). The last thing you want is to get out on the trail and shred a tire if you get crossed up too much. The 34" fit the bill with only a 2" level. The 35" *can* be a problem in more difficult situations according to others.

But the Raptor wheels will fit any stock F150, and can wear a number of different size tires.

What pictures would you like to see?

All angles. I have raptor wheels and just installed a level and rear blocks. The off-road look,you have is what I'm going for for camping etc as well. What bed topper is that too?
