Tires and Rims that will work?
Hello,I put a Ready Lift leveling kit on my 2007 f150 4x4 i raised it 3" in the front and 1 1/2" in the rear and i also add bushwacker fender flares. My question is what size tire can i run with no issues? I also was told by Ready Lift that i needed to run a rim with 5 1/2" back spacing which i have had trouble finding.Does anyone have a suggestion on what brand and size rim to run? Please HELP! Thanks Lako

Just wanted to give you a heads up I don't know what kind of 3" that is if you replaced cross members or if it's like my old skyjacker 3". That was a 2" strut replacement with a spacer to make it 3" the A-arms started tapping the spring and the ball joint connecting knuckle to a-arm was so angled they started wearing out. I dropped to just the 2" strut and have no problems now. Back to your original question I'm running LT285/70R17 Pro Comp AT's with stock rims no clearance issues at all with new set up. Old set up the inside front of the tire would rub when trying to turn really sharp just learned to back off a little and didn't have issues there either.

Thanks for the info.
Hello,it is a 3" strut lift which im not real happy with.The sales rep told me i could run 35s with no rubbing with the right rims.I called him back because i was having trouble finding a rim with the specs he told me and now he is telling me i might have some rubbing. Im considering scrapping the ready lift and going with something else. Thanks lako

I have the same lift! I know my rims fit great but the tires i chose were a little wider then i'd like. i just loved them and didn't think into it as much as i should have. Pro Comp makes a great tire but get the A/T's not the XTerrains unless you are alright with a bit of cutting to the rear of the front wheel well.
