Custom Wheels and Tires
I'm lookin to put a 3" leveling kit on my F150 FX4 with 17x10" wheels and 33x12.5" tires. I'm told by tire shops that I will rub but they dont say how badly. Does anyone have experience with this size rim and just a leveling kit? I'm wondering will it work, and if it does rub will it be in the front so I can simply cut some plastic away? Im going for that stocky look, I would like the tires to stick out about 1-1.5'' inches. Also will a 3" leveling kit make the truck truly level?

backspacing on the rims is what will make them rub, my 33's rub on a 3" leveling kit. but then again my wheels stick out a lot but a little grinding at the tire shop fixed that
