Hey guys and Alex

What are the biggest tires you guys are running on this set up? I'd like to get 34-35s but didn't know if anyone was running that set up yet. Thanks

Yes, it makes it easier.. I think XLTinSD said "You need to summons your inner hulk". But yes weight off wheels makes it easier.

We run 305-55-20's of stock wheels, no trimming no rubbing. Some guys are running 35's. Best to get with your tire shop after installing our lift.

Installed my F150lifts 2.5" spacer/2" rear block kit last Friday night. Install went very smooth and I'm very impressed with the quality of this kit. Took truck in the next morning for alignment and all that needed adjusting was the toe. Everything within factory spec! Truck drives perfectly straight with the steering wheel centered(pet peeve of mine...lol). There are NO noises in the suspension!

Now for the ride...IMO it rides the exact same as stock, I can't tell any difference at all. I am still on my factory wheels/tires so maybe that's why my ride hasn't changed, but I was worried with people reporting that level kits made their truck ride like ****. Now once I swap on my aftermarket wheels and Toyo MT's I fully expect the ride to change.

Overall I'm very happy with my purchase from F150lifts. The product is top notch and their customer service is second to none thanks to Alex. I'd recommend this company and their products to anyone!

I'll get some pics up as soon as I put the wheels/tires on. Wheel arches measure 39.5" up front and 40.5" rear giving me 1" of rake, which is exactly what I was shooting for. Here's a pic of the wheels/tires I went with...BMF Novakanes and 33x12.5x20 Toyo MT's

Any rubbing issues with that setup? I love those wheels. Can you take a pic looking down the side of your truck to show how much the tires stick put past the fenders?

They look basically like any other level of this size from what I've seen. If you're looking to level you just have to accept the fact that the angles will be greater than stock. I will try to take a pic for you.

Honestly I haven't left the driveway yet...lol. I have a work truck so the F150 usually stays at home and today I spent a good few hours detailing it and I'm still not done. It's been a nasty winter for us...

I will break out my Nikon this weekend and get some pics. Honestly, I was worried about the tires sticking too far out with the offset of these wheels, but I'm glad I went with them. It looks perfect imo!
