Nice truck and upgrades. You will need at least 4" of lift for 35's. I have a 4" with lt315\75r16 tires, which are around 34.5" , and while I have no rubbing issues, if it was flexing off road much, I'm sure there would be sheet metal carnage. The lower back corner of the front fender openings would be the first to go unless you do some fender trimming. You can see in the pic how much room there is. Wheel offset will also affect the clearance. Mine have no offset and I don't rub at all, but if you offset them out,you will probably rub.

Keep us posted.
