2004 F150 4x4 Lariat...

will 35"s fit with only a 2.5 leveling kit on it? Im sure its been answered a million times... but I wanted to post this to specifically address this question.

thanks

 

they will fit if you use your stock wheels

 

I agree.

 

stock wheels?! is it a some kind of back-spacing issue?

 

you can use aftermarket wheels aslong as they're close to stock wheel specs

 

RIght, it's a combination of backspacing and wheel width. Remember, you are trying to cram a really large tire on basically a stock truck. The width and backspacing has to be perfect. If you can find a 8 inch wide wheel with 5.5inches of bs like the oem wheels, they would also work. You are gonna have some minor rubbing on the control arms at full steering lock.

 

I agree, keep them on the stock wheels or a 8" wheel with 5 1/2 inches of backspacing. That's what I'm using on mine with no rubbing.
