Default Things to consider before putting on Raptor Takeoffs? 5.0 4x4 with 3.55

Found a good deal on raptor wheels on FB Marketplace. I’m planning on buying them and then 305/70r17 falken wildpeak at3.

does anyone know if a 2” level will fit these tires and wheels without rubbing? Do I need 2.5”?

also truck is the 5.0 4x4 with 3.55 gears, anything I should consider before going this route?

2" should clear no problem. May even clear stock. I'd do shock and struts if you're going to the hassle of a strut spacer. My 285/75-17 with 0 offset wheels haven't rubbed once with a 2" level (bilstein 6112).

how do you like the bilsteins with the wheels? How’s the ride? I’m hoping for a setup that will eat service roads
