Default will it rub?

looking to lift my 2009 Laramie 4x4. I don't want to do anything crazy high.
i was thinking just a leveling lift with 35 in tires. But i also need to be able to put irons chains on all 4 wheels.

so will it rub with the chains or will it clear?
should i go higher or a smaller tire?

Just out of curiosity, where do you go that you need iron chains on all 4 wheels, it must be fun!

Visiting my family in Washington during the winter we have snowmobiles. Some times you need the extra traction to get the trailer to the top of the hill.

Ah... towing in the snow... can't say I've done that before.

Just noticed the his & hers trucks. Nice! What are the colors?

2" level kit and 35's on stock rims will rub at full turn. i would say its fine front and back, you wont be going fast in the snow at full turn anyways.
