Default i need some advice with wheels tires and a leveling kit

I have a 06 f150 xlt scab 4x4 in dark stone metalliI want to get wheels tires and a leveling kit. I was thinking of the rancho quick lift because i head bad things about the spacers. I have stock 17 in wheels on there now i want to go up to 18s possibly and 35 or 33 inch tires .

I been reading alot about this back spacing stuff and it might as well be in a different language. I never put wheels and tires on anything so any help would be appreciated

You can fit 35s with a 2.5 lift/level upfront with offset around stock. I did it with +18 offset

I've got 18" XD monsters with 295/70r18(34.3") trail grapplers and they look and handle great. All you need to run em is a 2.5" leveling kit $100.

Rim and tires set me back 1800$
