Just got out of a shop nearby, and they are charging me $2000 for a CST 7" Kit w/ schocks; and $4000 installed with 35s Nitto Trail Grapplers. Does that sound reasonable ?
At first I wanted a 4" Lift with 35s, but he said it wouldnt fit.
Its either 4" with 33s or 6-7" with 35s. Is that true?
Would 33s fit on the RCX 3" Lift?
so many questions.
What would you suggest? Any opinions appreciated
All I want is keep the gap between the tire and the fender as small as possible.

You can fit 35s with a 4" lift for sure as long as you have the right offset wheel to keep it from running. Usually a 6-7" lift will take 37s to look right

Im planing on keeping my Rims for now. Should I consider wheel spacers then ?

I have the 3" RC lift with 33's, mines 2wd also. Fit fine.
You could maybe fit 35" on the 3" , with a little rubbing though.
And like blackout said, 6-7 would fit 37"s.

i have 6' lift on 35s with -24 offset (wheels stick out 2-3 inchs) the setup would not work with 4 inch lift it would definatly rub. i paid 1200 for kit about 1000 for install and alignment wheel/tires were 2500

I run the 7" CST and rub on 35s Bc of wheels being 10" wide and negative offset go with a small wheel spacer up front on stock wheels and you should fit 35s on the 4"
