I put 35's on an F350, and it rubs the leaf springs slightly on the passenger side when turning right at full lock (rubs on back inside corner of tire). Should 1/4" or 5/16" spacers correct this problem? I'm also going to use a leveling kit up front as well. What do you guys recommend?

Thanks

Also, know of any good Ford Super Duty Forums?

That's a common problem with F350 when they have aftermarket tires and lifts. Personally I don't like spacers. As long as you don't do any heavy off-roading, I believe you should be OK. Or you may want to get another wheels with more offset or try to get a different front lift. (like 2005 "f" trucks). They sell for about $2500. Thy replace the front leaf springs with spring coil system.
