What!?!? are you replying to an old post? 295/70r18 will fit with a hit or miss on rubbing if the truck is a 4x4 with a leveling kit.

Hi all this is very helpful thread, I have 33/13.50R20 IROK sswampers on my stock Fx4 rims with just a 2" level with 44000 on them wanting to go back with Nitto Terras 295/60R20 hoping no trouble! Is the rear level hard to install? Anybody have good wear reviews on this mileage, balance, towing? Oh, and if anybody not wanting there stock chrome 20s off their lariat 09' ^ near So IL please let me know?! Thanks! Keep the good info n pics rolling!

New Tires...Nitto Grapplers
Finally pulled the trigger. Now it looks like a truck. I was worried that the Nitto Trail Grappler 295/70/18 would not fit due to being 2wd. I have a 3" Hell Bent Steel leveling kit on the front and 1.5" on the rear. So far no rubbing except at full lock on the control arm. I think they look great and gave about 2" of height.

And here's my 2010 F150 2WD 4.6L, 2.5' leveled in front by Bilstein adjustable 5100 shocks, 1.25 leveled in the rear by Roadmaster Active Suspension. I am riding on Pro Comp 7005 rims measuring 17' X 9' with 4.75' backspacing. My tires are "E" rated BFG AT KO's measuring 285/70/17, which is a little smaller than a 33', about 32.7 by 11.2.
Initially I lifted the front only and experienced no rubbing on the road. It looked pretty level too front to back, but under full articulation offroading the left rear tire rubbed the fender and put a nick in the sidewall at the very uppermost portion of the tread. So just a 2.5 inch front lift won't work in all circumstances with my tire. You need some rear lift too. The nick was about 1/2 down from the top of the tire, so with a 1.25 inch lift in the rear now, it shouldn't be a problem anymore. I can't wait to test it!

How does the Roadmaster Active Suspension level out the back? It would seem the design wouldn't affect the static ride height. How do you like it now that you've had it for awhile?
Truck looks great!
EDIT: Never mind. I did my research.
