Fitment for the factory 18's? So hear me out...

[SpaceRanger]

I've been reading every single post about fitment and clearance that I can't seem to find a definitive answer. Again, this is for the factory 18" Lariat (FX4) wheels.

First and foremost, I like the wheels so I just want meetier tires, a little better fender flush, and the least extreme leveling without going balls to the wall full Fox million dollar lift kit. So here's my plan:

-SVC leveling collars (1.75 to 2" lift in the front)
-275/65R18 vs the stock Hankook's
-1" spacers

Question is, will I need to modify or replace the crash bars to get the tires to not have any rubbing? Or would the lift and spacers take care of that?

You'll need to modify your crash bars. The increase in offset will make your wheels swing/arc more while turning. I ran 1 inch spacers and it was very tight with rubbing on the crash bars. Back to stock offset with no rubbing and a 2 inch lift.

Were you using stock size tires or larger when it rubbed with the 1” spacers?
