2011 f-150 4x4 leveling kit with 35's?

Here's the deal I have a 2011 f-150 4x4 6.2 and I purchased it with a 2.5 leveling kit and 33's on it! What is my best option to run 35's with no or no major issues! Fuel mileage is not a problem I don't get that anyway haha

I run 35's on 17s with my rough country 2.5" levelling kit. I just removed the lower bumper valance which looked like crap anyways and trimmed a tiny bit of plastic off of the bottom inside corners. Oh and my rims have a positive 12 offset

Thanks for the info! I was told mine is a 2.5 inch leveling kit but idk I guess I'd have to evaluate it more but I know for sure that it's not rough country! Any take on the rancho quick lifts and 1 inch larger rear blocks? Or any full out leveling kit that lifts the truck completely all the way around?

Your best bet to run 35's is to stick with the stock wheels or aftermarket ones with close to stock specs. What diameter wheel do you have 20..18 or 17's? I ran 315x70x17's on my leveled '04 Lariat 4x4 with no problems on a 17x8 wheel with 5.5 inches of backspacing. The wider the wheel sticks out in the front is what causes most clearance problems when turning real hard.

Here's the '11 Lariat I had with LT305x55x20 Nitto Terragrapplers on the stock 20's. Truck was leveled 2 inches in the front.





Tires were 33.2x12.6 and this is the max width on these wheels. You ought to recognize the front plate too!

I have a '11 FX4 with a 2" level and I'm running 295/70/18(34X11.5) and have no problems.

Thanks for the info fella's! Mines just like the copper/tan one posted! I have aftermarket wheels. I am actually thinking of just replacing my leveling puck with the full adjustable leveling strut with a larger rear block! Anyone have feed back on them?

My rough country is 2.5" spacers up front and 1" block on the back. As long as you don't have to much - offset you should be good. Personally I would love to upgrade mine with a 0-3" adjustable coilover and put a 2" block in the back for a nice look and better ride. Camburg has a beauty kit
