Pictures of my set up, Please help

ok, Here is the story of my tires
My next door neigbor was moving and he had a new set of tires and rims and dint wanted to move it with him, so he offered to sell it to me. all he wanted was 100.00 dlls per tire/rim. 400.00 for the set so I bought it from him.
Tires are: TOYO Open Country M/T 35x12.50R20 NEW
Rims are: 20x10J Also New
Can some please look at this pictures and see if a AS 2.5 leveling kit would work? I realy dont wanted have to lft the body or suspension (too expensive)
I dont mind have to trim a litle plastic from the bumper or the back.




My Truck is 2006 Ford F150 Screw Lariat 5.4 L
Is 4x2 but it looks as tall as a 4x4.


1st picture is the 2 front tires on the truck without any mods.


2nd Pic is a close up and i have a 2.25 inch space on front and back.


3rd pic Look from the front


4rd Pic. from the front side


5th Pic Close up from the back tire to truck


6th Pic. Close uo from he front tire to the front bumper


7th Pic Right front tire turned to the right touching the back (outch).

8th Pic Same as seven a little closer.


9th Pic is the tire turned left touching the front bumper
All I need is about 1 more inc of space.


10th Pic Full look of the truck



Thanks a lot for all the help from this forum.

I'm gonna say that there is absolutely no way that tire/wheel combo is ever going to fit your truck without a pretty big lift.

I don't have any first hand knowledge w/this size. However, if you need your money back I would be more than happy to work a deal w/ya!

If you do lift it or whatever it's going to take to make them fit, they'll look awesome on your truck

From the look of how far the front wheels stick out, you are going to need at least a 6" lift to fit those tires and wheels on your 4x2 truck. There are members on this forum who have 35s with only 2 1/2" of lift on a 4x4, but they are using factory wheels or wheels with the same width, offset and backspacing as a factory wheel.

Sorry for the bad news, but the 6" lift will cost anywhere from $1500 to $2000 installed.

Yeah sorry bud not with a 4X2. You may be able to with a leveling kit and a 3" BL but it would still be close.

You could easily resell those tires and wheels and get close to $2000 if they are in fact new. Doesn't really sound like you want to lift the truck, so I would sell those wheels and tires, buy some 33's, and put your leveling kit on.

You had a very nice neighbor.

Yeah, your best bet to run that tire/wheel combo is a 6 inch Fabtech or Pro COmp lift.

That was an awesome buy. I would get a lift, but if you aren't wanting to spend the money, you can make your money back selling the wheels and tires.

I'm jealous, I want a neighbor with extra tires too. Is there a bailout deal for this sort of thing? Yeah, I went there...

That takes "filling the wheel well" to a whole new level.
