F-150 freaak

Hey guys, I am looking to buying a leveling kit for my truck. I see that Rough Country has a 2.5" spacers and 1 inch rear blocks and shocks for $300. It says that the recommend size tire is 35X12.50. It also says Backspacing: Factory. Does this mean that you have to run the factory backspacing or it wont work or what??? I am looking to run that size tire with a Toyo Open Country M/T. However I also want to get the Fuel Offroad Dune wheel in the 20". On Ebay, it says that the backspacing is 4.5" or 5" and offset of -12mm or -24mm. I want the tires to stick out the sides with a pretty good amount sticking out. So i will probably get the -24mm offset rim. Since the Rough Country site says Backspacing: Factory would this mean that I can't run these rims and tires with that kit. I kinda figured the moroffset there is, the less chance of the tire rubbing. Please help me. Im kinda stuck on what to do. Thanks.


Here is the link to the Rough Country site to that page that says all the info about the kit.

Here is the link to the wheel and tire package page from Ebay which gives all the info about the tires and wheels.

my friend you are paying way to much for that, theese levling kits are all the same, look at hell bent steel or even go to ebay and you will find alot cheaper

Well thanks for helping me get a cheaper kit but my friend has this kit and loves it. Im just wondering if runnign these tires and rims with that kit will work. i really want to know so i can get em ordered.

No shot the 4.5" BS wheels will fit with 35's unless you have a level kit + body lift or a 6" suspension lift. You might be able to get away with the 5" BS wheels. I had 35's with a 2.5" HBS level and 20x9 wheels with a 5.5" BS and it was perfect. If you want the wheels to stick out then drop the tire height, or you will have to sacrifice the offset if you want the big tires.

twittyaustin

its just all the kits are the same, and with - offset and your looking to run 35s you could but youll have to do some trimming, not alot but shouldnt be to bad

How much trimming would I have to do??? And these wheels are 20X10 Fuel Dune. After what twittyaustin said about getting ripped off. I was looking on Ebay for FULL leveling kits with the rear blocks and I have found a kit with a 3.5" spacer up front and 2" block w/ u-bolts for the reat for $160. Would the extra inch let me get what I'm lookin for?

twittyaustin

idk how you found a 3.5 but only a 3 would work

twittyaustin

you are like the offset tire master! lol

Take a look at it, if you wouldn't mind and tell me what you think about it? Is it even possible to have that much spacer in the front??? Let me know...

twittyaustin

i would find a 3 inch not 3.5 iv never seen anyone run that 3.5
