Default Will this work?

I would like to know if this would all work together I have a 2014 Fx4 ecoboost with 3.55 gears but will be changing those to 4.56
I just don't know what gears to go with?

I want this lift....

I want this wheel....

I also want to put these wheels...

I was just wondering if all this would work together or would I have to trim?

Thanks in advance!!

It should be fine but it was me I'd buy 35/12.50r20 and save myself a hundred or so per tire. There are guys with level kits outing 35s on with little to no trimming. Also 4.56 is gonna make it scream to go highway speeds I'd split the difference and do 3.73 or 4.11.

That is as close as I can get to a 35x12.5x20 in that type of tire I don't want a MT I want that tire also the 4.56 are better for that size tire with the lift are they not? Also better on trans I thought?

I'm not telling you your wrong. The lower the gears the better they handle big tires. What I was saying is at 75 mph you'll prob be turning like 4000 rpms( jest a guess) in od. But that's jest my opinion. Do what you want but if it was me I'd go 411 to try and keep rpms down on highway.

Do a search on google and there is a calculated website where you put in your stock tire size and gear info and what tire your going to and it will tell you what gears will even it out

I did and it came out to 4.00 but I just don't know that 4.10 would be enough I don't do much hwy driving at all so that won't be a big deal I rarely go over 60 mph. So what do y'all think?

By my math 3.88 would even it out if you have either the 275/65/18 or the 275/55/20 as stock

I'd leave it stock gears and if your getting a tuner jest buy a good one that adjust trans shift points and speedo for the bigger tires. I have 34" tires ordered for my 2015 with 3.55 gears
