I used the spacers on my 2006, took them off and now they are on my 2008. Loved it on both trucks. No problems on either truck. I still run the factory shocks but I dont do any heavy off roading where the suspension travel would be an issue.

With a leveling kit I'd stick with a 33/12.50 or 325/60R18.
We offer a few different systems for either a leveling kit or 4" or 4.5" lift:

For 35s on a 99-04 I'd recommend a 4" or 4.5" system to clear the tires.

I'll be honest, I'm retarded when it comes to this stuff. If you could recomend an exact tire size (preferably a Toyo Open Country A/T)for that wheel that would be great. My other ride is a Rockcrawler and I never have to worry about rubbing with that. Picking tire for that thing is simple with 10 inches of lift and no fenders.

The Thugs come in two different available backspacings (I didn't see it mentioned in that link....might have missed it).
For the 99-04 you want the one with 4.5" Backspacing.
The other option is the 5.25" backspacing which would be for a 05+ super duty.
As for tires, are you looking at stock height or still with the leveling kit?

You could fit the 285/65R18 Toyo Open Country MT.
Depending on the leveling kit (i.e. 2" or 3") you probably can fit the 285/75R18 (equiv 35/11.50R18).
They are both load range E with high load ratings.

X2. I've heard of cutting new shafts for large lifts, but 2.5" isn't extreme enough for that.

08 Super Duty Leveling Kit
I have a 2008 Super Duty King Ranch 4x4. I am looking to put a leveling kit on it also. I have one on my 2004 F-150 and love it. Everyone always ask me if its lfted because it sits higher than theirs. I am thinking about going with the Ready Lift 2.5" leveling kit or their SST lift kit which has the leveling kit and the 4" rear lift blocks. I am planning on keeping my stock 20" wheels and tires.
Has anyone used Ready Lift products and what do yall think about them. Their website has some really good information and videos on it.

Same question. If I add a leveling kit to my 08 F350 SD gasser, what is the max tire I can get under it? I was able to run 35's on my 04, but it looks like the fender design in the rear is less forgiving and the fron is more forgiving...
Your thoughts?
