Another 22" Question

I have an '06 F-150 S Crew FX4 w/ stock 18's. I want to bump up to 22" wheels and BFG A/T KO's I was thinking 325/50-22 which are 35's This will obviously not fit under stock conditions. I was think about doing a 2.5" level and hoping the would be good enough. I can't put a huge lift because I use my truck for work and it would make it to difficult for my customers. This would be my optimum setup. Also with this set up about how far will this stick out.

I am also considerings 20's because I know they will work, but I really want the 22's. I know you guys will probably not recommend my set up, but it is really what I want to do.

Thanks for all your help.

As a general rule on the new 4x4's with a leveling kit, you can fit 35x12.50's using the OEM wheels or 33's using aftermarket wheels. You OEM wheels are 7.5 inches wide with 5.5 inches of backspacing. To fit a 325/50-22 (35x13.00-22) you will have to find a wheel almost identical to the OEM specs, and even then it will be very, very tight. If you could find a 22x8.5 inch wheel with 5.5 or 6 inches of backspacing, you may be able to fit those. Personally, I'd go with a 20x9 inch wheel and some 305/55-20's (33x12.50).
