No you shouldn't have any probs if you are running flat fenders. You shouldn't have any issues.

You want 2"-2.5" rear extended bumpstops to run 35s with flat flares.

With flat flares, you can run stock front bumpstops with 35s.
im planning to use whatever bump stop that comes with the TF spacer kit.

I'm running the TF 2.5 BB with 35's and flat fenders. Great kit, but if you can afford the coil lift. Gus from ORW is running an awsome deal on a coil lift with good shocks.
