Help with rubbing issues
On a 2005 Lariat Screw 4X2 with a readylift leveling kit.
Ok here is what I did I put Pro Comp Xtreme Alloy 1069 18x9,6x135Bolt Pattern,Offset-6,4.75in BS with 325/65/18 Pirelli Scorpion ATR's and have some real rubbing issues. I can't even park my truck with out rubbing and I already cut all the plastic I can and the metal in the fender well is next but I don't want to cut metal if its still going to rub after.

A 325/65-18 (35x13.00) tire is way to big for a 4x2 (or a 4x4 for that matter) with only a leveling kit. You basically have two options. Remove the leveling kit and install a 6 inch Pro Comp or Fabtech lift kit. Or you can go to a smaller tire like a 285/70-17 (33x11.50) or maybe a 305/65-17 (33x12.50).

Readylift Leveling Suspension for 2004-2006 Ford F-150 2 & 4wd #REA66-2050
Readylift is the fastest, safest, lest expensive way to level a truck and add tires up to 35" in diameter. While other lift kits costs much more and take hours to install, Readylift can be installed in as little as 30 minutes and costs less than the price of a single wheel.
Readylift's Shock Extensions are made from plate steel over 1/4" thick and mount on top of the shock assembly, eliminating the hassle and danger of compressing the springs unlike urethane spring inserts. The Shock Extensions never wear out and come with Readylift's Lifetime Warranty. Keep stock suspension "feel" while raising the front up to 3".
