They work great and the ecoboost handles them well. I did have to do some trimming to the fender liner as well as some to the front air damn.
I just installed the edge cs tuner today and i have to say it helps out with getting those big tire to turn faster, the torque curve seems to hit sooner. anyways let me know if you would like more pictures or information. Like i said i couldnt be happier with my truck, the ride is incredible both off and on road.
I got the front kit ordered I'm about to pick up a new set of 315/70/17 as well can you post some new pics with the new tire set up? Or if its easier you can email them to seth.stovall@gmail.com thanks

Like i said before youll have to do some trimming and make sure the front end is leveled out after it settles. But the tires clear just fine. here are a few pics of my setup. i'll try to get some more for you as well.

Thanks for the pics, my front bumper will be coming off and replaced with an ADD bumper so shouldn't have front clearance issues there. What about the front fender wells near the doors? Any clearance issues there. I was thinking it might be better to go with a 305/70/17 in order to utilize all the travel this system provides without tires bottoming out on fender or body parts. It's only a half inch narrower and a half inch less diameter. Maybe not enough to even matter just a thought. Anyway thanks for the advice and pics. Look forward to seeing more. I have to put my truck in the body shop soon so it will be a while before I get mine on. I smacked a pole at the carwash.

If you are staying with stock length LCAs/UCAs, you aren't gaining up travel, only 1.5" of down travel - so instead of 8", you would have ~9.5" total.

My point is, it won't impact tire clearance. What will impact clearance is what setting you run the coilovers and how heavy that ADD bumper will be. You can mimic a spacer lift by running with a bit of preload which will lift the front about 1.5-2". This 'should' make up for the added bumper weight and allow you to clear the larger tires with minimal cutting.

That looks so sweet! Nice work! Any chance you can get a picture from the from showing how far the rims stick out? I was looking at getting the same ones.
