Do you think I will be rubbing with that setup? I like a little offset, how far do yours stick out? Pictures would be great! Thanks!

I would think for sure you would have major rub issues. Mine are very minor with the mud flaps but your going 1" wider on the rim plus a more aggressive offset. I would be inclined to say you will have serious rubbing and issues unless of course your willing to cut the crash bars off......

Default FX4 Lariat Sport with 2.5 RC Leveling Kit





Still have 1/2 inch rake front to rear. It's the perfect leveling kit. Did not do 1 inch rear block. Rides perfect

I still have the factory 20s and want to do the same; downsize to 18s or even 17s (as I have a 2014). I'm not a fan of dubs on 4x4 trucks and the scrawny tire sidewall that comes along for the ride.

My setup is RC 2.5" with a +1" rear block; very slight rake as a result.

Next this truck is getting a rear block upgrade and an icon stage 2 kit. So I will post pictures of the icon kit at the max (2.63 inches) of lift and our pro comp 3 inch rear block. But first we have to take the fox kit that is on it off road and make a video for you guys.

Any updates on the icon stage 2 kit being installed? trying to decide if I wanna just do spacers in blocks vs coilovers....and if coilovers fox vs icon.

2014-2015 F-150 FOX 2.0 Front Adjustable Coilovers Install - YouTube

Here are some pictures of our 2015 FX4 Ecoboost on 295-65-18s on stock rims.



Is the kit being installed in the video, this on?

We installed a 2 inch leveling kit, the product you linked to is the 2.5 kit, but the install procedure is the same so we added the video to that listing also.
