So im just wondering how much of a level i need in order to fit a 35x12.5 r20

Currently running 275 65 r20s with no issue

However, i am confused that there is a 1" difference in height, why would i need a 3" level?

Because of the fact that you will have a 12.5 inch wide tire. I had that same size tires on my truck with a 2.1 from level, and I rubbed on full lock on the bottom of the wheel well. The heght of the tire isn’t the issue, it’s the weight.

You should be able to get enough lift by cranking your torsion bars(that is assuming your truck is 4x4)

Aslo assuming you are using stock wheels you most likely would need 1/4” wheel spacers to keep the tires from rubbing the uca
