check what your lift company says. often times aftermarket suspension kits require that you get new rims with less backspacing to make more room for the control arms.

Some suspension lift companies are saying you can't use the oem wheels with their kits on the 04-08 F-150's. The tire will fit, if you can use the wheels with the lift.

i think you have to get new rims for the fabtech. only suspension lift ive seen 04+ with stock wheels being used with bigger tires is the rancho.
