BMF Wheels and Leveling Kit?

I was wanting to know if anyone is running BMF wheels with just a leveling kit? My buddy just bought a set and they look sweet. I would like to see some pics if anybody is running this setup. How much trimming will I have to do? Thanks.

Trimming all depends on the width and size of tire.

they do rub like a **** lol, i have novakane's on my mega and they rubbed the mudflaps, had to remove them, still rub the fenderwell a tad. They also rub the front black airdam piece when slightly turning, they do not rub at full lock unless going in reverse and they rub the fenderwell a little. Worth it though for me cause they are the shiznit yo lol.

Im running the novakanes with Kore leveling springs and a thuren trac-bar.
35" toyo m/t tires. They rub at certain times, you just gotta learn how to drive it, ie. not turning real sharp into a parking lot that has an incline to it. I have a set of thuren Control arms that I haven't put on yet, I'm hoping this solves my problems, but if not I can live with them the way they are because they are really nice wheels.

Unless the control arms are longer than stock it will not change anything. you need to push the axle forward more from it being moved backwards with the leveling kit.

Yea I really like the novakane wheels. What if I went with a 305 instead of 35's? On my buddies dmax we cut enough plastic until they don't rub at all. Is it the same with dodges or does the tire actually hit sheet metal.
