Default What size tires can fit my truck with leveling kit?

I looking to level out my 08 F150 4x4 crew cab. For what I've been searching is I would need a 2" front leveling kit. Now once I get the leveling kit installed, what would be the largest size tire that could fit without it rubbing anything? I currently have 18" stock rims on it now, and I'm looking to get new rims and sticking with the 18". While i mention rims, what are some good quality brands for rims?

Just a note (I'm the 3rd owner)

This is a current picture of it:

Cool thank you. I'm sorry, I'm new at purchasing aftermarket rims and larger tires that fit. I found a tire and rim that I was interested in. I just need someone's help to make sure that this rim will fit in the tire that I'm looking at.

Rim: Fuel One-Piece Lethal D567 18x9 6x135

Tire: BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 LT285/65R18

1) Will this rim fit in this tire? I'm pretty sure because the rim is 9" wide and the tire rim range is 8"-10"

2) The rims have 3 different offset options, -12, 0, and 20. Do these matter, or is it a preference? My understanding of the offset is how far the hub sits into the wheel. Can someone provide some clarity for me please? And which is the better option for my setup? Thank you!

The off set will matter... that's where tire rub comes from.. stay close to stock off set for little to no rubbing .. the +20 wheel would be your best bet for "No" rubbing.

Which offset did you end up getting? Can you post some pics? I'm in the market too with the same size you have.
