My black lifted 2015

I vote for no air dam - that looks awesome! Too bad for the harsh ride. Part of it could also be that the tires don't have as much give now that they're LT. If it's easy to adjust the coilovers, I'd say try that and see if it helps. But if you lower it too much you'll have rubbing, especially when you put wheel spacers on.

So the lift installed was at 3.5" in the front. When he delivered it, he told me he expected the lift to be somewhere around 2.75 - 3". My bet is the decreased weight of the 2015 F-150 (700 lbs!!!) accounted for the increased lift and harsher ride (the lift I bought fits and is designed for the 2014 AND 2015 F150).
Even with the increased lift at 3.5", the 1.5" spacer made my tire rub with the wheel turned during reversing.
So I've taken off the spacers, ordered a 1" spacer (which they're swapping out for free- thank you wheeladapter.com).
I've lowered the lift to 2.5" and it rides soooo much better. Fingers crossed that the tires don't rub with the new spacers.

It was rubbing on the steel frame. In front of and behind the tires in the wheel well there are these projections out from the frame that look like their purpose is to guard the tires and absorb impact and protect the wheels/tires in case of a crash.
