2021 F-150 ordered, 2019 JLUR Rubicon
Alright my lift is in My state now and should be in my hands by EOD Friday!!

Decided to go with 6” BDS kit and need to get tires sorted out now. I’m heavily leaning to BFG KO2 but having some FOMO on size…..

35x12.5x20 is the easy, know it fits no frills size. (But I am concerned that there will be a lot of open wheelwell).

37x12.5x20 would fill the wheelwell better, but some chance of a little rub or trimming.

I have been looking at as many pictures as I can find, but really need to pull the trigger on tires before Friday (both sizes I can get locally in 1-5 days). That way I can take the truck in and have it built possibly next week.

Any suggestions?

Here is my attempt at a before and after. BDS 6” installed with BFG KO2’s (325x60x20). There was a small amount of trimming on just the plastic trim up front.

Nice - may I ask what does something like this cost (out the door taxes included)? Was there any cutting required?

They had to cut a little bit of the inside plastic near the bumper but you’d never know. As far as price I honestly don’t remember as I bundled everything into my rig. It’s the 4” coil over kit

Hey new here love all your lifts. I’m up here Canada (Toronto)

I just got my lift done yesterday

I have the XLT fx4 package power boost 7.2Kw

I only have 2700km
Here my setup:
Rims- FUEL OFFROAD REBEL 20X9
Tires- AMP TIRES AT 35 12.5 20
Lift kit - BDS LIFT KIT 4'' with fox 2.0 rear

I also powder costed some parts.

here are some photos that the guys at the shop sent me today. I’ll get some better photos later with some before and after shoots.

I have an appointment on Monday with ford to do the Recalibration for my Sensors.

right now my truck is sending notices that my Blindspot Detection cross traffic is Detecting communication issues. Hopefully the recalibration fixes this issue.

I have a very similar setup and the recalibration worked fine on mine. No issues with any of the sensors, intelligent cruise, lane centering, or anything else.
