03 f150 fx4 tire size?

I recently bought some stock 2006 stock 20s and 35x12.5x20 from a buddy and I am wondering if they might fit if I crank my torsion bars all the way up? my truck is the 2003 F150 Fx4 Supervrew Lariat. I still have the stock torsion keys. any help would be greatly apprechiated. Thanks

I have a leveling kit in my 02 f150 FX4 Running a 285/65/18 tire which is like 32.9 inches or something close. With stock keys cranking them all the way with 35s they will rub because mine rub at times. With the aftermarket keys you can crank them a stupid amount and i would be surprised if you can fit 35s under there. Bad part is I've ripped at least four cv boots from the angle of the leveling kit. I mean maybe worth a try, might be a little stuffed up in there.

In the end aftermarket keys cranked all the way you can fit them but things will be breaking because of the angle. Always worth a try though. Crank stock ones see how everything is take for test ride and if not then try the leveling kit.

They won't fit because the bolt pattern is different.

As Anderson said and i forgot to mention the bolt pattern is different with the rims and even with spacers there still could be rubbing.

At the very least you'll need to trim the corner of the valence, but you'll most likely also be rubbing the frame when turning, the inner fender well when going over bumps, and possibly the control arms.

As others have said:
2006 is a 6 bolt pattern. Your 2003 is a 5 bolt. Won't work.
