Default Tire sizes with leveling kit and keeping my 20" wheels

I have a 2008 F150 4X2 4.6L. I am am getting tired of it looking stock, want to put a leveling kit on it and a block in the rear. Not sure how much to put. I have the 20 inch stock wheels and want to keep those when I step up on the tires. Need to know what size tire (in a 20") will work with maybe a 2.5 front and 1 inch block in the rear. Any help would be great thanks!

I had the 3in leveling kit with 33x12.50. It rubbed a little bit. I got a 6in fabtech suspension to run 35s it looks much better. In this pic I'm still on the 33s

285/60R20 or 275/60R20 will probably be your best bet, maybe a 305/55R20,

Im kinda in the same boat. I have the stock 20s and stock pirellis. When they wear out im going to get either 33s or 35s. I think my truck is leveled but im not sure. I bought it used. Id like to see more pics of leveled 4x4s with the stock 20s and aftermarket tires. I really like Big Red.

I just ordered a 2" Hell bet steel leveling kit 305/55 20 Cooper Zeon LTZs to go on my 20by10 XD monsters. I think the 305s look really good.

Would 305/60r20 Fit on a 2wd with 3" leveling kit on the factory rims. If thisquestion has been answered before sorry Right now i am running 285/65r18 but on afteramrket rims and they are mighty close the aftermarket rims have 4.5" backspacing
