A Quick Double Check....
Hey guys. I think I have all of this correct but would just like to run it past some of you to be sure. I have used all of the threads on here as well as the wheel and tire fitment guide (AWESOME) and have finally figured out what I am going to do as far as wheels and tires. Just want to be sure it is correct. I'd appreciate all of your feedback!
I am putting on a 2.5 inch leveling kit on my 2007 F150 XLT 4x4. Ditching the stock wheels and crappy tires for some BF Goodrich KM2s and either Eagle Alloy or ProComp wheels. I think I have all of the backspacing, sizes, rubbing issues sorted out but I would like to be sure. Here are the 2 setups I am going for, eventually picking one based on the wheel availability!
Option 1:
2.5 inch leveling kit with 35x12.5r17 KM2 tires on Eagle Alloy 186 series Super Finish wheels. They are 17x9 wheels with 4.625 inch backspacing and -8.00mm offset.
Option 2:
2.5 inch leveling kit with 35x12.5r17 KM2 tires on Pro Comp Xtreme Alloy 1069 polished wheels. 17x9 inch wheel with 4.75 inch backspacing and -6.00mm offset.
Just want to verify that there are no issues with either of these setups. I used the tire and wheel fitment guide along with other posts from members and I think these will work. Your opinion is appreciated! Thanks a lot.

Definitely not much of a fan of leveling kits with stock shocks.. ( have cv axles at hand) been down that road and never going back down it. If you have the money for a 6" I would def do that.. Or some aftermarket shocks.. Done ranting lol... But option 2 would be a nice set up. I had 2.5 leveling kit on mine with 35's and I could not get a full lock.. That's just my experience..
