No rubbing at all. Had to do a little bit of trimming of the plastic, not too much. I could only get a 13.50 wide tire to fit, maybe 14.50. Anything else would had rubbed. Wheels are Maxxi Hulks 18x10, I think they are 4.5 bs.

Still like to hear what your planning on doing with air bags. Are you just doing the rear or do you have a ideal for the front?

im doing both front and rear, for the front i have a lot of ideas tossing around, the problem is hieght, the year is going to be aired out at the height right now and aired up about 8" taller.

this thread has some info in it on who im doing it with and what you can expect it too look like quality wise, no bull**** here haha. pictures dont do these trucks justice.
https://www.f150online.com/forums/20...day-gifts.html

And for the front like i said i have alot of ideas one of them is to hard to explain without visual its pretty in depth but its extremely different.

And tlt008 i dont know why your stuck on this rubbing issue either haha, i bought a body lift and tires and havent even thought once about rubbing because i dont see it as a problem haha. i will make it work, just like i will make other things that the body lift has you do look better than the kit does. like the rear trailor hitch for example, looks like crap if you ask me if you do what the instructions suggest. so im going to modify that ****!

It should look impressive, but body lifts suck *****. People don't believe that they suck until they install one, then you will see. Fortunately, it sounds like the body lift is only temporary.

You should have started with a Super Duty.
