i think the most people have ran with a 2.5" spacer on the front is 315s, you might run into some rubbin, you gonna have the stock backspacing or are you gettin new rims?

Even 315's on 2.5" lift are gonna hit in several places...... If you don't wanna spend more on a lift, go with 285's, or, get at least 5" of lift.

I figured I might do some rubbing I'm not going to be blown away if it does happen. It's a tall truck as it sits so I figured why not. I want more lift but cant afford the down time. So just the tires for now. I might do wheel spacers if need be

You could probably run those width of tires with the leveling kit, but the key will be to get rims that are like 12" wide with a huge offset to keep them from rubbing on the fender/control arms.
