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

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.

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.
