Default 35s on 20s with leveling kit?

I found the wheels i want, 20x9 Pro Comp Xtreme Alloys 6047 with 5.25" of backspace. I am only putting a 2.5" leveling kit on my truck as far as suspension. I was planning on going with 33s but I prefer 35s. I have read the tire fitment guide and from what it says I can fit these 20s on 35s with no problems. I will not cut anything or put a lift kit on my truck, but want to run this set up. Any help is greatly appreciated, along with pics of 20s on 35s.

you can fit but im sure you will be cuttin something. I personally think 33s are a perfect size for a level. I hate when tires look stuffed into the wells. Just My opinion though. There are a lot of guys with 20s and 35s on a level around here.

I have 20's with 35's on my truck with no leveling kit and I don't rub. I wouldn't worry about it rubbing if you're gonna put a leveling kit on

a leveling kit won't help with the Upper control arm rub at full lock...I'll bet your's rubs too...you just don't trun your wheel all the way.

I can't count how many times I've had it at full lock in both directions and it hasn't rubbed a single time. I'm not gonna say that bc mine doesn't rub then no one else's will rub. It all has to do with what rim you have and what kind of backspacing it has. I have 20"x9" black American Racing Clash and they don't rub on my truck.

Actually just noticed you have a 1990 truck and we are talking 04-08.
