37's on -18mm offset and 2 1/2" leveling kit

Bought my 2021 F250 a few months ago, I tow a lot so didn't want a huge lift kit but still wanted the more aggressive look, decided to go with a 2 1/2" leveling kit with 20x10 -18mm Fuel reaction wheels, with 37x12.50R20 Toyo AT's... been told they shouldn't rub, but have also been told I'm gomma have to do some cutting... anyone know for sure? Thanks!

I have 37/13.5r18 BFG KM3's and +18 Methods on my stock suspension F-350. I did have to trim some plastic and bash a pinch weld, but that's at stock height. If you can live with something closer to the +18 offset you will be golden with a 2.5" level. I bet anywhere on flat ground you'll be fine. But to be able to clear under moderate or increased articulation you'll probably need to do some judicious trimming. Negative offsets don't play nice.

I picked my (Purgatory) 2021 F-350 last week. The websites I've seen always default to "you may have to trim" but a guy I know that works in the accessory industry said that a 2.5" leveling kit (on a 350 at least) with 37s will not rub and that it's literally the perfect setup if you want a lifted/more aggressive look, but keeping your offset pretty much in line with the fenders. I don't see why it wouldn't be the same for a 250 assuming you're replacing the stock front suspension with new coils and shocks.

With -18 you will rub on the fender some(pinch weld). I have +18 with 37/12.5 and I had to just trim a tiny bit off the plastic piece at the back of the fender.

+18 with rub on the stock radius arm and sway bar however.

EDIT: Have a Carli 3.5" on a 2020

I just ordered my kit from CJC. 3.5 Backcountry with 20X9 Methods. 18/5.75 BS PN. MR30529087518

This same set up with the stock radius arms and sway bar end links. Cody says it won't rub on 37X12.50R20's

I have 38/13.5/20 with -19 offset. 4" lift. I rub on the left bumper, had to bend trim and grind a little. I also had to take the mudflaps off. You can see how much they stick out with -19 offset.

I believe they did a spacer level, nothing to the rear, rubbed a little, had to trim, but not a lot
