What size tire will fit?
I just purchased a 2005 f150 supercrew I purchased a 3.5 inch coil spacer for the front and 2 inch block for the rear. It's 2wd what is the biggest tire that will fit?

If you read on ebay, the places selling the "3.5inch" level kits state
"The front lift spacer is NOT a 1:1 ratio in terms of lift amount to thickness of the spacer - Meaning that the lift height achieved is much greater than the actual thickness of the spacer. The reason being is that the lower control arm compounds the amount of lift due to its angle and length."
Therefore the spacer isnt 3.5" tall. Ive researched and some sites say the 3.5" space measures 2.5".
Hope this clears things up.....
With the level kit on a 2wd i would run 33-34" tires.

that is true they are not 1:1, but that is still a rediculous setup. im not hating im helping. Maybe 2wd are different than my 4wd but that wont even work on mine.
spacer thickness:........ Amount of lift:
1 1/4" ............................1.5"
1.5" ................................2"
1 5/8" ............................2.5"
1 3/4" .............................3"
I did a write up on my setup: https://www.f150forum.com/f4/6-rough...-77531/index4/ page 4, post number 38.

Yah of course they are not 1:1. But some ppl on here are having problems with he 3" pulling the UCA down and hitting the coil assembly. That being said another .5" would prolly cause more problems. But our truck your opinion. Try it out and let us know how it works out! Might be fine. Could run 35's prolly no problem. Depending on wheel specs
