thanks

Hey CDRMOTORSPORTS, I have the exact same truck except in 250 and have been wanting to do the same thing. I know for sure the rims on the 250 are 18X8's. I think I am going witht the 33in Toyo MT's & a 2in leveling kit & probably the Bilstein HDs. I would go with 35's but I absolutely want to avoid having to trim anything in the wheel well. Post some pics when you get it done.
If you go with the stock wheels you shouldnt have to trim anything, My F250 came with Plow Prep and I have a 1" skyjacer spacer up front to level the nose. clears 35's with room to spare. Never had them rub at full lock or under suspension compression.

Hey Robs, thanks for the clarification. Maybe I'll get 35's instead . A couple more quick questions if you don't mind. On those Bilstein shocks, since I am only going with a leveling kit I should buy the F4-BE5-C295-HO for the front and the F4-BE5-C296-HO for the rear correct, which are the heavy duty shocks? On the leveling kit. How do I know if I need an all around 2in or 2.5in leveling kit vs a 2.5in in the front and a 2.0in in the back? Is it all just preference? My main focus is having a level looking truck that I can shove widder more aggressive tires on my stock rims. I apologize for my ignorance. I am not terribly mechanically inclined if it's not obvious. Thanks again.
easiest thing to do is park your truck on flat ground, take a tape measure and measure from ground to top of wheel well opening on the front and rear (either side) and then see what the difference is between it, then go from there. Normally a leveling kit is just for the front.
as for shocks, those part numbers sound familiar... are you getting them from shockwarehouse.com?

Yea, shocks are from shockwarehouse. Wish they made a steering stabilizer as well. It will look a little funny with bielstein shocks and a rancho or skyjacker steering stabilizer.
yeah, you cant really see the yellow shock bodies, I dont have the blue boots on mine either so that helps hide them.
