2.5" are you referring to a leveling kit? I have a 97' F150 4x4 and I am told to run 305/70/17 on factory 17" wheels with the torsion bars cranked, so a 35" may be too tall for yours, but if you don't get them I'll take em' and makem' fit for $200

unfortunately you will not be able to fit 35's on a 4x2 with just a 2.5 leveling kit. you would also need a 3 inch body lift. I have read many times that the largest tires you can fit on a 4x2 is a 33.

I agree. You should be able to fit them with a leveling kit and a 3 inch body lift using the OEM wheels.
