Default 2.5in leveling kit wat size tires???

i just ordered a 2.5in leveling kit for the front of my truck and now im trying to figure out how big i can go without problems... a couple of the sites ive looked at they are saying 33x12.50's on the stock rims but other are saying 35's will fit... it does go off road alot so i cant have anything thats gonna be hitting my fenders or inner wheels when im flexin...

I have 35's on a 4" lift, it is a perfect fit, I would think 35s are a bit big for your lift!

I ran a 35 on my 2.5inch superlift kit and i had no rubbing, i didnt wheel my truck but it did see the dirt roads and fields many times through out deer season. I think a 33 would look way to small, if i can find a pic ill post up what mine looked like with a 35

I'm running 305/75/17's on mine with 350 blocks rear and 2.5" spacer up front. Only rubbing I get is drivers side tire on the inner fender just BARELY at full lock. Articulation seems to not be a factor either. This is probably because I'm on stock 17x7 wheels. Different offset aftermarket wheels they wouldn't rub at all.

Mine is a VERY SLIGHT rub. I'm sure if I get under there and pull the inner fender back a hair, it'd be fine. Most of it is the wheels they are on. If you step up to the 18x8 factory wheels or the 20x8 factory wheels it'd probably be fine. I have the narrowest wheel offered by Ford on my truck, factory 17x7s...
