i dont know about the 06..but with ym 02 and a triple axle trailer and 2 or 3 rock krawlers...never rubbed the tire....

BTW...buddy has a 08 superduty witha 6 inch lift and 22 inch wheels and 40 inch tires coming out in next diesel power...rubs over every bump ;-).......shoulda built a MEGA CAB instead!

you will have no worries on the rear and unless u get the proper wheel back spacing you will rub on the front even with a 3 inch spacer

and pretty much any spacer bigger than a inch to a inch and a half you will needs blocks or something in the rear to make it level again as the front will be higher than the rear

i had 35s with a3 inch kiton my 06 mega cab the wheelswere 18s with 4.5 back spacing and they rubbed ( never on everyday reg road driving)the inner fender when i drove off the road into a dip like a small ditch or something

in order to make a 35 fit proper with no rubbing issues you will need a backspacing as close to stock wheel as possible ( i think its like 5.5-6)

hope that helps some

I run the 35's on stock wheels, no rubbing, however I'm concerned about snow-chains.
