Just brought her home today. Couln't be happier after much debate about which way to go.
2" level, 2018 Roush (Mickey Thompson) take off wheels and tires.
I just installed a 2 inch Tuff Country level on my 2017 Lariat with BFG 275/60/20 KO2 Guy who installed said 2.5 starts causing issues. Still have factory ride but looks so much better without the rake
Hey guys, I searched but still can’t find an answer. Will 275/65 20 fit without rubbing with a RC 2” level? My wheels I ordered are 20x9 -12 offset. Any help is appreciated??

275/65/20 will work. The rubbing begins when you go up to 285. My local tire shop told me I could have put 275/65/20 on mine and only went with 275/60/20 because they were a little cheaper. Hope this helps
I guess everything is subjective. I like some of the OEM designs, but honestly, Ford isn't very good at that on trucks. GM and Ram have done better in recent generations. I find the factory Ford wheels a little bit old-man-ish. The STX wheels currently are the best looking factory ones, but they're too narrow and sit too far inside the fender in my opinion.
My truck literally turns heads.... strangers compliment me constantly and that never happened on stock wheels.
Your truck looks great, no doubt! And everything is indeed subjective. I own my favorite oem wheels I've ever seen on truck, and prefer the flush spokes, as opposed to the deep dish/lip. Bumped out with 1.25" Bora spacers, stance is ideal imo. I too get compliments regularly, at least when it's washed!
I am sure this question was answered above, but there are a lot of posts.
Will adding a leveling kit void the factory warranty?
I have a 2018 4x4 supercrew. I want to level it after reading about it. What would you guys recommend in the front? I have 20 inch wheels with 275/55R20 tires. Don't plan on going much bigger on the tires.
Thanks.
Size of level depends on look you are going for, for example I wanted to keep a slight rake, so I went with a 1.5". 2" will put you level or possibly give you a slight reverse rake look.
Will you keep your factory wheels?
What type of driving do you do - meaning mostly around town? Any off road?
The Bora spacers aren't going to fail, and even with the cheap crap found on Ebay, it more often than not installer error. Also, never seen a decent looking aftermarket wheel, though I'll admit I'm biased towards OEM in general, and particularly the wheels I have currently.
How can an installer screw up spacers?! Guess either didn't use loctite, tightened uneven, or didn't tighten enough?
I'm kind of biased toward OEM too with the right wheel, even though I put on aftermarket wheels; still deciding what to do with tires. After seeing your truck I'm thinking of putting my stock wheels back on, going with same spacers and same tire size. That size of tire really does fill up the wheel well nice, is a common tire size, and is still rated an LT tire? Not sure if LT is the correct term or not.
And webby150's truck also has me thinking I should go back to OEM, since my OEM wheels are the same. These wheels accent the look of the Platinum trucks as they have some shine when clean.
dlaws - I know those are OEM wheels, but did those come stock with your lariat? And great color choice on your truck!
Fox 2.0 coilovers and rear shocks with leveling kit
New to the site and just bought a new to me 2016 f150 supercrew fx4 3.5l EcoBoost. I bought the fox 2.0 leveling shocks and coilovers and also a fabtech 2.5f/ 1.5r leveling kit. Can I combine both kits and will they together give me a 4.5 lift in front or only 2.5" of lift. I only want to level my truck with maybe a slight reverse rake and not a 4" lift. If i wanted 4" of lift i would of bought a 4" kit just bought these two kits not knowing what i wanted to go with. Thanks in advance for your input.

One or the other on the front, if you already spent the money go with the fox 2.0 they will give a slightly better ride.
