I pulled the trigger on a new truck. 2016 Magnetic (grey) Crew Cab Long box FX4.
I got the dealer to throw in new tires since I would want them eventually anyway. I had Trail Grapplers on my 2005 FX4 and I liked them, so I decided to go with them again.

I will have a 2.5 Autospring level like this one to clear the new tires in front: http://www.stage3motorsports.com/AS2...eling-Kit.html

I will be keeping my stock 18 inch rims Like this:


I have not given them a size yet, I was thinking about going with 11.50x35/18s to reduce rubbing in the front and reduce rolling friction or 12.50x35 and cutting more out of the front wheel wells to clear. I don't want to put in any wheel spacers.

Now the questions:
1. Will 35's of any size fit with just the 2.5 inch level without wheel spacers?
2. Will 11.5x35s be any better than 12.5x35s for rubbing and mileage?

Thank you all in advance.
