Here is mine. Went back and forth between 2.25" and 2.5" pucks. I chose the latter after confirming with the help of this thread that it would clear 35s. Things might be overextended upfront but I am hoping to switch to Raptor take-offs anyway in the future.
The only downside to the 2.5" puck was that it left the front higher than the rear. Ordered a 3" rear leveling kit to get some rake back while fixing the bulldog look. Will update the pictures after it's all said and done, the leveling kit is currently sitting in my kitchen waiting for my brother's lift to be available.
2.5" front leveling puck. Not a fan of the bulldog look.
Looks much better with 35s (285/75R/18 Kenda Klever RTs). The slope also helps... it helps quite a bit.
Those tires look perfect on your truck. Do you have any frame rub at all?
None. My tire guy thought the fronts would rub the corner of the wheelwells near the cab but so far all four corners have good clearance. I chose the 2.5" leveling puck for that reason. Haven't had the chance to do a full compression test or anything crazy like that just highways and potholes in town.

I think im going with a 2" eibach level strut up front to match the rear with a 35x11.50r20 so hopefully i can manage a little of your luck and miss all the rubbing.
Just recently got a 2018 2wd f150. looking into getting a leveling kit, rims and tires. Looking for advise and opinions from others on which leveling kit to go with and rims and tires sizes. Ive been looking at the coilovers that rough country has to offer or the pucks. Im trying to pick which will give me the most comfortable ride or factory like ride. as for the rims and tires im thinking of going with 20x10 on 285/55 want to not have to trim anything and no rubbing just not sure if it fits. any information is appreciated.
I recommend you go with Bilstein 5100s on all four corners, and setup the fronts at the highest setting (2 - 2.1" lift).
As for the wheels, that wide? I have no idea. I prefer narrow wheels and tires for what I do, which is ride the superslab in order to get out into the dirt of the Mojave desert.
Good luck, and you will! love those shocks. Best thing you can do to a road-going F150. Hands down.

With a factory offset wheel you may be okay, dont think i could run a 35 on my wheels (20x9 +18)

I don't think would either on your setup. Pretty sure that would put me in contact with the lower lip of my bumper. I have 33.6x11.5r20s on right now and they cleared before the level with no rubbing.
To add to the above exchange between 9'er and jp, I have a '16 5.0 XLT 4 X 2 SuperCrew shortbed on which I installed Bilstein 6112s @ 1.5" lift (with weight in the bed 24/7/365 and 5160s I added the Roadmaster Active Suspension to restore rear ride height). Truck has a minimal amount of forward rake...
Point being that using a 17 X 8.5, 0 offset wheel and a 285/70-17 (32.8" X 11.5) Firestone A/T2, it rubbed in reverse just before steering lock, limiting the vigor with which I might have executed some turnarounds. lol.
I just went a different setup to get about 1" of positive offset (+25mm) on the same wheel width (could not find a good 8" or even 7.5" in aluminum) and Toyo's new sizing of 34 X 10.5 X R17LT D Load Range (33.5" tall) and with the same front suspension ride height the tires clear completely. I am pretty happy with it.
Wanted a narrower tire, anyway, and wanted to get rid of the poke even though I liked the look of the truck from any 3/4 view angle or from profile... so the new look is fairly underwhelming but tell you what! it's far better off highway.

Is that with the stock wheels ? I have 285/55r20 I want to replace my tires and just do a leveling kit with no cutting or modifications.
