    Default Tire Clearance ?

    2018 f150 ecoboost, had the dealer take it to a rough country installer and put a 2" leveling kit on. Question is, whats the largest tire I can put on comfortably with no rubbing??

    You shouldn't have any problems with a 35x11.50

    Turbos love big tires


    If a man is alone in the woods, says something, and a woman does not hear, is he still wrong?

    Common sense is not a gift. It's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone else who doesn't have it.

    You damn right! A leveling kit and larger tires killed my gas mileage on my Eco!

    I put 275/65 20 on mine with the level. Didn’t kill the gas mileage too much.

    I use to run 35s on my 2014 with leveling kit but hit a deer and pushed the bumper in. Got scared they would rub when I got new tires so I moved down to 33s. They still look good20190208_154124.jpg
