Hey everyone...I have a 2022 F150 Sport with factory 20" wheels. Wondering if I need a leveling kit to be able to run more of an AT tire? When I visit BFG's site it says they will fit my truck but a lot of videos I see out there always mention leveling when moving to tires like that. Thanks for any advice you can give!

I am running Toyo open country with no lift. No problems. 275/60 on 20 Roush wheels.

Running a 2.5 inch strut spacer, 315/70r17 bfg ko2 tires. Equivalent to 34.6 inches. Minor minor trimming of the rubber valence and slight adjustment of the crash bars. Hope this helps

Probably only need a leveling kit if you’re going to run bigger tires otherwise there wouldn’t be a need to

Looks great! I love the level look but don’t want to pay for it. So the trimming comes in when moving from a 275 to the 315?

Only about $250 for a leveling block, stage 3 motorsports. I can’t speak for any other sizes, i always run a 315 and this is my first f150 and it was just a small trim of the lower corner below the bumper. Very small adjustments , almost not even noticeable if you don’t know. I had to loosen the bolts on the crash bars, place a pry bar inside and move the bars outwards, while applying pressure then tighten the bolts back down to gain about another 1/2” or clearance

Hey bud love the setup any rubbing on full lock and what is the offset of the wheel ( I’m on stocks and trying to figure out if I can run my stocks or if I need a spacer to clear the control arms and tie rods

Thanks! Yea tiny bit of rub, different tire types may have more/less depending on sidewall aggressiveness/ shape. Rubbing is on first couple inches of crash bars but I made some adjustment to lessen. I’ve got methods nv 305. 17x8.5 6x135 0mm offset. Hope this helps!

Only have rubbing in reverse when wheel is turned fully to the left. Weird it’s only in one direction and reverse but I guess that’s the way it is
