Leveling kit ? Tires ?

Hey truckers,

Have a stock 16' F150... 1st, I've measured the truck and only a 1" difference between front and back. Do I need just a 1" spacer for even level or need to go bigger to compensate for motor weight or anything? I want the front even with the back. Also I would like 33" tire but how wide can I go? Will a 12" wide tire rub or do I need to trim or spacer?

I would greatly appreciate any input especially pics?

That's such a nice truck.

I'd put chrome 17" rims on it with those tires you have on it now. They look almost new.

The black and chrome would look sweet with the cherry red.

Hi Jason,

Our HP10253 leveling kit would bring your front end up 2" and give you enough room for a 33" tire on a 2WD truck (35" on a 4WD). I can't speak to the tire width question, but if you want to accommodate the height of a 33", the front end may need those 2" to stay 100% clear in all situations. If you'd like to discuss it in more detail, please give our Customer Service team a call at 800-663-0096.
