Wheel / Tire Fitment (will it rub)

Hi all,

I am making the rounds to every F150 forum I can find to get some input.

I am going to run the following

Raptor Take Off Wheels
6.16" backspacing
34mm offset
17" X 8.5" wide

2.5” AS Leveling Kit

Kelly Safari TSR 315/70 R17 Tires
Diameter 34.4
Section Width 12.7

My assumption is that since the tire is measured on a 9.5” wheel mine will be a smidge less wide (like .40 smaller so 12.3)

I know people who are running similar to above with the BFG AT with no rubbing issues

The BFG Measurements on a 8.5” are:
Section Width 12
Diameter 34.5

I really like the Kelly tire but they are special order and I am stuck with them if I order them. The next size down is a 285/70 (33 x 11.5)

I just want to be 99% sure I won’t have any issues.

Thanks!

There is a member here with a 04-08 model year running Raptor wheels (factory) with the factory tires with a 3" level and he has no fitment issues. I'm not up to date on the backspacing specs of those wheels, but if you are close, you should be good to go.
