Anybody have 35x12.5x20s?

Ok you guys I'm looking to see what is required to put these tires on my 05 powerstroke. I'm wanting to come down on my lift and was wondering what size lift is required to put these on ( I want to get down as close to stock height as possible. Thanks in advance

I know the Rough Country 3 inch lift will clear 35s but I have a friend with a 06 f-350 with a Readylift leveling kit and 35s but not sure if he rubs any.

Just talked to my buddy and he said he had no rubbing at all with his leveling kit and 35s.

I've got 35x12.5x20s on my truck, but I got a 8" procomp lift was running 37x13.5x20s but due to more death wobble, medioker snow performance, and throwin crap all over itself(even with 3" bushwacker flares) I dropped down to 35x12.5s. I'm not sure i understand your question. I'm a Driller in the oilfield so just gettin to work is quite an adventure somtimes,Im sidways a lot and Ive never felt the truck was unstable................yet.

I have 35X12.5X20s and a 1.5 leveling kit, It shouldn't rub but its close. I asked my mom to move the truck after unloading dirt bikes one time and she hit a ditch and jumped it a little, a few months later the tire wore through the passenger side brake line and it was almost a real problem hitting a cement wall.. Just keep an eye on it. I've also had to use sheet metal screws and screw my inner fenders down tighter, the plactic rivots kept popping out and the tire would grab them. Switched to my stock tire and wheel for winter becuse it was too unpredictable.

@ Kingdar well after my experience last week going across four lanes of highway i don't think its worth sitting up so high if I'm not driving my 18 wheeler.

@ Courtney what kind of tires do you have? And when/where does it get close on rubbing?

A set of Hankook Dynapro's. The inner wheel well all across the top, and by the break line.
