Default 34" Tires w/ 1.5 level?

Guys, I'm about to switch out my 2" spacer level and install some Bilsteins on my f150. I'd like to put them on the 1.76 setting...has anyone stuffed similar sized tires 295/60r20 (33.94) with 20x9 +20 offset under either a 1.5" or 1.76" level?

I dont have any rubbing or trimming...would like to keep it that way...

For those of you who have trimmed. Is it mainly spreading the crash bars? Any comments would be appreciated.

Are you in Annapolis MD? I am in baltimore and I am thinking of adding 34" tires. I already added fox 2.0 along with a 1.5" spacer and 2.5" rear blocks. I'd like to meet up with you to take a look at your wheels if you have time at some point.

I have a 2 inch lift with 275 65 20 on a 22 mm offset and they rub in reverse. Only at lock on the crash bar. Like mentioned above its all about the offset and you will need clear them. I have stock platinum wheels with the same lift and tires and it did not rub at all.

I think some of you are misreading. I already have the wheels and tires already on my 2" leveled truck. What I'm trying to figure out is if I can do the Bilsteins at 1.76 with the same results...since most people have 1.5 or 2. I asked if it was possible with 1.5 level...

​​​​​​wheels 20x9 +20
tires nitro ridge grappler 295/60r20...

as seen below.

I just ordered my Bilstein 5100s front and rear and I was told by my installer that I should be able to run 295 70 r18 or 305 65 20s with struts set at 2.1 we will see if that works out next week or so when parts come in. until then
