help tire size

hello I want to know if I put a 2" leveling kit on the front of my 2005 F150 lariat with 18 inch rims, what is the biggest tire size I can get without it rubbing?

thanks

I have a leveling kit and an add a leaf on my 07 4x4. Im running 33's and its enough room not to grind when hitting the trails, Ive heard guys running 35's but I know there would not have been any flex room for me if I did. So if you plan to do anything with the truck I wouldnt go bigger than 33's.

I want to get Michelin LTX A/T2 tires but I dont know what size to get. I am planning on putting a 2 inch leveling kit on the front. I have P275/65R18 114T M+S tires on there now. Is the 33 inch tire the P285? I want to get the biggest tire on there with this leveling kit but I dont want it to rub. My truck is just for driving around town but it may see some off road action.

305/65-18 (34x12.50) BFG AT KO's is the largest size that will fit with no rubbing at all on a 4x4 with a leveling kit and OEM wheels. A 35x12.50-18 will fit but they will rub the control arms slightly at full steering lock.
