biggest tire size with a levelling kit????????

[ccolley68]

I have an 06 F-250, Crew Cab, 6.0, FX4, Lariat. I recently got a levelling kit of 2 1/2". Right now I have 285/65/18's on aftermarket wheels. Can I fit 325/65/18 or 325/70/18 with it the way it is? I knew a guy who had 325/60/18 on a stock truck, but it was a F-350. I have a front end replacement so I have a lot more clearance in the front than a stock bumper. What do you guys think? I have attached a photo of my truck, but it was before the levelling kit just to show the front clearance.

You can run 35s but you have to fold the plastic back after cutting out some of the inner support behind the plastic. If you take it to a body shop and have them fold back the sheetmetal about 7"s up you can fit 37s. We've perfected it at Smith Motor Company. smcsuperduty.com

Just FYI, I went by the tire shop yesterday. they had 2 325/65/18's that I put on to test fit. They fit fine other than a little bit of shaving on the bottom of the plastic in the wheel well. The owner of the shop has the same truck as I have with these same tires on a stock truck with 22" rims. He did a little shaving, the exact same as I did today, so if he can fit them with a stock truck, no problem with mine with the leveling kit.

I ran 37X12.50R18's on my Stock Harly Wheels with a 3.5" leveling kit on my 04 F350 for 2 yrs befor I went to 22x11's (and 37x13.50R22's) and had to do more lift because of the wheel offset.

305/65/17s on aftermarket wheels with a 2.5 inch leveling kit, probably closer to 2 or 1.5 with the weight of the bumper and winch. Absolutely no rubbing.
