Default 35 inch tires.

I'm new here and I hate asking questions or advice when I'm new. I've tried searching and I can't find a definitive answer so I have to ask, anybody running 35's on their truck with a 2 inch level? I have a 2010 Screw XLT 4x4 with a 2 inch HBS leveling kit. It appears as if I have enough clearance to run a 35x12.5r17 but I'm unsure. Anyways again if anybody is running this setup please advise. Thanks and sorry for a run on question.

I tried 35" tires and they rubbed a bit!
Didn't want to do any cutting or trimming so I went with a 34"(275/65/20) tire. Works perfect.

or try 285/65/20 they are 34.6" high and provide just enough clearance

295/60/20 for a 34.5 and wider. 275/60 in my eyes isn't wide enough.. just noticed you're on 17s though lol

Thanks guys. I don't mind doing some minor trimming. Ideally I would lift the truck but that's not an option financially speaking for now. I had thought about 315's but when I see them on a truck they just still don't quite have that appeal that a 35 does.

Is that a 2 inch level? And I agree that is a sexy truck.

Yup 2" HBS, it fit those tires better than I thought. Did some trimming and now it never rubs. I'll hear a minor rub if I'm in reverse steering to right at an angle and I reverse fast. Otherwise nothing
