So we bought a sport with Automatic transmission will it pull 35" tires or will it be a dog? I'll do a 2 1/2" lift .....also what back space do I need to be looking at? I wanted them tucked not sticking out if 35's aren't doable I'll do 33's and a leveling kit thanks in advance!

You are fine with 2.5 and 35's just try and stay with wheels with a + Offset like +10-+40 or in between that will only put the 12.5" tire 2" outside fender

Don't know what offset I have (dealer installed) but 305/65 (32.7x12 advertised and more like 32") with 2" tuff country spacers and longer shocks.
If I went 295/70 they would come close to hitting the front plastic between bumper and front fender at full turn, but can be trimmed. The wheels are out further than stock. Not a power issue with 8 speed but I wouldn't go over 295/70 myself.
