Default Wishing I would have went with a 2.5" Level

Got my 2" HBS Level on this past weekend and got my 35's. Everything is great and all but i have a slight rub when going up inclines sometimes. And i just saw another member post is 2.5" level with 3" rear blocks and i think it would fit the 35's better.

Swap it for a 2.5, not a crazy hard job and I'm sure you'd easily sell the 2" spacer

Yeah, but then I'd have to pay for another alignment as well

Well I know when I had 35's after a few months of tire wear my slight rubbing disappeared. So you could hope for that too

Is it rubbing on metal? If not, it's no big deal to trim plastic.

Not sure if it's metal or plastic, sounds like metal, still trying to figure out what it's rubbing on

im guessing you will still have rubbing with the 2.5 when offroading , 35s are a bit too big for F150s with levels, may look cool and drive fine on road but they will actually impede you off roading , 33s are perfect, better milage and driveabilty too.
