I am running that setup. The tires clear the new spindle by maybe 1/4". Look at this link. I am running 18X9 Monsters with 35/13.5 Cooper's. I have no rubbing what so ever at full lock. https://www.f150online.com/forums/su...ere-we-go.html

I'm not sure if there will be rubbing on those tires, but 13.5s are better left for 37"+ tires on 8" lifts in my opinion. How much they stick out depends on the backspacing of your wheel and how wide your tire is. I think your best bet is to stick with some 35x12.5 tires, they are plenty wide enough.
Browse through my gallery to see how much they stick out.

i have 325/65/18's on mine. 35x13.5 on xd diesel 18x9's with 5 inches of backspacing. Pro comp 6 inch, no rubbing at full lock or anything. Tires stick out maybe 1-2 inches. If you dont like it then get some bushwhacker flares. Personally, and this is just my opinion, 35x12.5's are a little bit too narrow. If you are gonna jack the truck up then put some meat under there. That's just my opinion though and not everyone is going to agree.

The only problem is you may have to wait a while on the Hoss's. They're on back order. Make sure to get the 0 offset. Yes, mine are 22's. I'm currently running the Kumho's right now. Terra's were pretty good. Quiet and ride smooth. I've never put the truck in the mud so Idk how they are with mud. I actually still have them and trying to sale them.

Just did mine last weekend with two floor jacks and 4 (7) ton jack stands. Over kill but I got more height.. If you have any mechanical skills you should do alright. I really liked this link.. http://www.celesapoc.com/truck/ This link has some step by step pics and is pretty good. Good to have to go back to. Do it and join the club.. I am so happy mine is done. But like everyone says you always want to go bigger. Right at a week into it and I already want bigger.. Good luck
