Looks great Mitch!
I have 'U' codes on the front of my PSD Excursion- Ford replaced the old ones under warranty, and I simply gave my service manager the part #'s of the ones I wanted installed. I was at 1/2" clearance and now have over 2". I leveled the truck with Ride Rites in the rear.
Be careful with the setback measurement when you get your new wheels- I see SO MANY crappy looking newer trucks out there with there wheels sticking way out of the wheel wells because the owner didn't have the faintest idea what wheel setback is........

My garage is 8', without the rack it would fit no problem in a 7' door. I am really happy with the ride so far, I still have 4" with my rack on an 8ft door. Troutly, I wanted the same as you but had to go this route to please. Now that she is gone I would like the pick up again but who knows, I don't plan on being single long (no, not married) so I will need the inside space, my dog sure likes it.

Looks good Mitch !
I've got 6.5" wide rims ( I think) and 315-75/16 BF Goodrich Allterrains fit perfectly. Still nice and squared looking.
I will talk to you Friday on the way up north.
