Leveling and Tires

OK well I'm thinking I'm gonna go with the Bilstein 5100's, and some 295/60/20's. Do you guys think that setup with my stock rims will work out? Just concerned about the offset/backspace. I have a 2013 FX4.

It will be close because of the backspacing on the OEM wheels, but I think they will fit. I think most people that were having issues with tires hitting the upper control arm/ball joint were using 12.50 inch/305mm wide tires (and even some in that size will fit).

Billstein's with about 1.5" - 2" of lift will be fine with stock wheels. I'm running 295/60R20 Trail Grapplers on stock wheels with a 2" level. Only rubs at full lock on the UCA.
