That sucks! Maybe you should cut back on the drinking! ;-)

The wheels are 9" wide and I originally had just a 2" leveling kit up front. I was running 285/65/20 tires with no rubbing. The Rancho 4" lift also levels the truck in addition to lifting it, no rubbing issues there either.

Good luck!

if you have an 04-05 f150, then the back is 3 inches higher than the rear, in which case id go with a 2.5 inch leveling kit in the front. if its an 06-08 f150, it should only be 2 inches higher in the rear, in which case id do a 2 inch leveling kit in the front. with the truck on flat ground and equal psi in all 4 tires, measure from the ground through the center of the wheel, and to the top most lip of the fender, see what your rake is front to rear.

if you can, stay away from the 3 inch leveling kit, it puts the upper balljoints, and cv axles at an extreme angle. i went with a 1.5 instead of a 2 because i tow my waverunner and boats allot.

if you want the front higher than the rear and you have an 06-08 then you can do a 2.5 but it will put your front end a half inch higher than the rear.

Thank you!! in that pic it is a 6" BDS lift with SPY XD wheels and 35" toyo tires, Im uploading a few more pics in a few, but I just made it bigger over the weekend.. its now has a 3" body lift, fender flairs, 38X15.5 toyos and a steering stabilizer on it
