thank you...yea, Sean at Maxtrac said that Id better do 33" tall only even with the 2.5" front coils. I thought for sure a 285/65 would work lifting nose 2.5".
But I can do a 275/65/20 and still do 2.5 coils, and I think it'd look about right too.
Probably cheaper too :naughty:

Now ready to shoot me? Its a 2wd..so does that make a difference on height between 2WD and 4WD's?

Your stock tires should be 33" already. I'm not real sure about the 2wd, but I wouldn't think 1 more in in tire height would cause an issue.

You might look into the Bilstein's and see if they will work on your 2wd. If so, your upper control arms and ball joints will appreciate the Bils over a spacer kit.

My stock tires were 275/60/20 on stock black out Express rims. No issue there. Would 275/65/20 be that much of a difference? Right now I have 305/45/22 SRT RIMS no rub.

This slow build to the climax is killing me.

Also, those rims would look a ton better with the logo blacked out. Any way to accomplish that?

Slow and steady wins the race. :)
I just got rims Monday LOL

The truck is silver, I think it will add the right amount of 'splash'.
