Those are my plans...2005 F250. Already have a set of 20" wheels with 5" backspacing. Wanting to do 35" tires with a 2.5" leveling kit but dont want rubbing. Anyone else out there tried this or have experience with it that could fill me in on whether or not it will work? Thanks....

You will have to ofind a wheel with 5.5 inch of backspacing if you do not want any rubbing and have to pull back the inner fender well. I have 35's on my 2005 F350 with a 2.5 donahoe kit and barely have no rubing with 5.5 backspacing and the adjustment to the inner fender wells. Good Luck

I have 5.25 BS and a 2.5 inch Donahoe on my 2005. Running 35x13.50x20 and I have absolutly NO rubbing.

Keep in mind that the amount of rubbing various people encounter with a tire/wheel/lift combo has A LOT to do with how they use it. Someone that runs only on the street (or down a smooth dirt road) can get away with tighter fit then would someone that takes their truck out and really gets it crossed up on the trails. The load you carry also affects rubbing, running empty gives more room then hauling a load of gear/quads or a camper would.
