Thought I'd drop some numbers if people need to follow. Got a 2017 Sport and so far added 5100's front and rear with the front set to 2.1" and a Topgunz 0.75" rear spacer.
OEM front is 36.5" to fender and the rears are 39 5/8" so 3.125" of rake. Truck has some extras so it'll be heavier than some others.
Bilstein 2.1" front on OEM tires is 38 7/8" so the lift was actually 2.375". Topgunz rear 0.75" spacer gave 0.625" lift on OEM tires.
I also added Nitto 295/65/20's because 1. They are a true 35" tire vs. 35x12.5's. 2. I don't need 12.5" wide and hitting things like the sway bar or UCA. So the overall lift of the truck has now been confirmed at 3.125" front and 1.375" rear of lift or 39.625" front and 41" rear with 1.375" of rake.
Now I got real CNC custom 10mm spacers that are true hubcentric and properly fit our bolt pattern vs that cheap universal piece of crap 1/4" spacer everyone buys. I don't need the spacers on the fronts as the tires don't hit the UCA and so far I've only got the passengers tire to rub the swaybar once when turning left at full lock when I was on an incline. An a flat surface there's zero rub. I added the rear spacers however because the front tires stuck out more than the rears. The tires now stick out evenly.
Now I don't have an alignment yet. I'm sure I have positive camber so UCA and swaybar rubbing might increase. I go Sunday to get it checked out.
Last thing...10mm was as small as the manufacturer was willing to go because any smaller than that the hub would hit the hubcentric ring of the spacer before the spacer made contact with the rotors surface. Therefore the OEM turns of the Lugnuts is 13.5 turns and I'm now sitting at 6.5 turns. The manufacturer stated 6-8 is enough. I'll just have to keep an eye out.
