Hey Guys, just got done swapping off the 295/70’s for the 35x12.50r18 Ridge Grappler. I am happy to report ZERO rubbing with a RC 2” level with rear block/shock kit.

I am using the Rough Country .25" spacers just to give it the slightest poke. Plus the .25" gives you clearance around the control arm. But 100% rub FREE!
Do the stock lugs/studs still have plenty of thread with those spacers? I've been eyeballing them myself.

Yes definitely do. No problems there at all. I’ve been running the spacers since the day I bought the truck which was back in may and I haven’t had any issues with loosening lug nuts or anything like that

Got the raptor take offs installed yesterday, I will take better pictures later today. 315/70/17 BF Goodrich K02 tires on 21 raptor 17inch wheels. No rub at all! Also not sure if it’s because the BFGs are C rated vs the nittos E rated or because there’s more sidewall, but these seem to ride a bit softer than the 295/70/18 ridge grapplers I had on which is an unexpected plus.

does it have a levelkit? Glad to see a couple more setup with the 20” OEM
If it has 35x12.50 on it then it def has a level kit

Thank you! Yes this is correct, if you have the max tow package the rear brakes are bigger and 17 inch wheels won’t fit.
I’m super jealous of you guys that can run 17s.
