Lift Kit Sizing Question. 3.5” RC

[Big Z]

Good Morning Everyone,
I hope yall are having a great Labor Day weekend so far. I have a general lift kit question that may have already been answered and if so I apologize. I’m ordering either a Rough Country 3.5 or 6” lift this coming weekend. My question is will the 3.5” RC lift allow me to fit a 35” tire without rubbing? I was going to get the 6” lift but I decided I didn’t want to look overly aggressive or much. I personally think the 3.5” is the perfect size for my 2019 Rebel.

Also this is another dumb question and I’m clearly learning as I go. But does a 3.5” lift really only lift the truck 3.5” ? Because that’s a very insignificant change. Whenever I see a truck with a 3.5” lift it looks more like it was lifted close to a foot so I don’t understand ?

Thank you again everyone for your advice and giving me responses to fill in my lack of knowledge as I learn more and more. Have a great weekend yall and safely have a beer for me !

My truck:
2019 Rebel WITHOUT air suspension. Everything else is stock besides a RC cat back, TBS, and CAI.

Thank you again everyone ! Love yall

I have the RC 3.5” in the front with a Motofab 2” spacer in the rear and currently run 35x12.50 bfg ko2’s with zero rub. I did remove the front mud flap and had to use a zip tie to pull the front liner a bit, but the result is zero rub.
