What is the backspacing on your wheels?

If your 35" tire/wheel combo doesn't fit without a leveling kit, chances are that a leveling kit will make it worse. Although your are moving the axle 2.5" down, because you are still using the factory control arms you have also moved the axle back a little bit. This puts the tire even closer to the first contact point on these trucks(the back of the front fender). I am going to guess that you are using a 9-10 inch wide rim with backspacing around 4.5-5 inches.:confused013:

Exactly as said above.... you can clear 35's but with the stock wheels or a set of 20's, I'm not sure about 18's with the right back spacing.

I have a set of 33 12.5's on 17x8's and they are close...
