Problems with wheels fitting???

Just put on a 2.5 leveling kit in the front. Looks like the upper link has a pretty extreme angle now when it bolts onto the steering knuckle. Has anyone had problems with wheel and tire placement with this being altered? I have a set of 20x8.5 wheels and 305/55/20's coming in and just wondering if anyone can give me a heads up.

Yes, the ball joint angles are increased and this probably leads to premature wear. How much? Who knows. It will not have any affect on wheel/tire fitment.

I run 305/50/20 and i do not have a leveling kit installed and they fit just fine on mine. I don't run them in the winter cause i live in MN and salt would kill my rims, but when i take the stock tires and rims off and put the summer set back on my truck does not sag as much and actually sits pretty close to level.
