I will assume you are talking to me.....

No rubbing whatsoever, not even close. They are the same size as they factory tires, so, leveling kit is not necessary. I have only had them a couple of days so I haven't really tested them out yet. I am going to Maine next week for the holidays so I am sure I will be able to "see what they will do"! I drove my stock 18" tires last winter and they sucked azz. Thus far, I definitely like the more aggressive look these have over the factory tires.

I know these questions might have been asked before but I couldn't find them using the search.

How big can you sqeeze under a stock F-150 without any rubbing?

and how big can you fit with a 2" leveling kit? ALSO will a leveling kit void the Ford warranty?

Your best bet is to do a search on this. There is a library full of info that has already been discussed!

I did do a search and I really didn't feel like shifting through a million pages when someone could answer it in a few secounds.

The only thing that "VOIDS" a warranty is when the aftermarket part that is added causes a problem that would otherwise not be there... Such as a check engine light that comes on after you put an exhaust on, or an air flow kit... The check engine light was triggered by the aftermarket part, therefore is not covered under warranty..... So if your ball joints go shortly after you install your autospring kit, chances are the dealer will tell you to pound salt.... But we all keep adding aftermarket junk to our 30k 40k dollar trucks... Cuz its cool damit!!
