Default Anybody running 35's with just a leveling kit

Wondering if anybody is running 35's with just a leveling kit. I'm looking at the Rancho quick lift.

35's are for 6" lift. I have been looking at a lot of pics. I think the 35" looks best on a 4-6" lift. 33's look good even up to 4"lift.

Aren't the 08's with 20s almost 33's?

275/60-20 is what came on it and when I do the conversion it shows: 275/60/20 = 33x10.8/20.

they will fit with only a leveling kit, but your rims will have a lot to do with it. you backspacing has to be right in order to minimize your amount of rub. romeosoldier claims 36's with no rub, but i know of guys with 2500's that do a leveling kit with 35's and have had some rub on tight turns.
