Yea, I know that I don't need a leveling kit for the 24's. I just want the leveling kit to make the truck look better. I don' really like that it is lower in the front.

With such a big wheel instead of raising the front have you considered lowering the rear? Personally I'm not a fan of large wheels and little sidewall (I know a leveling kit isn't a lift), but I think it looks better on a lowered truck.

If I were you I'd stick with 22" as there are a lot more options for tires. Nitto do a 305/40x22 Terra Grappler which would look great and also be very useful in the snow.

Just do the 22's and drop the rear about 2 or 2.5 inches. Your truck will look good and won't look like it belongs to a thug.

Thanks. I have been thinking about my tire options because I am in the snow a lot. I looked at those nitto tires and I think they will look great on my truck.
Thanks again.

22's will look to smal IMO if you want some 24's I can find you a deal on the wheels and you can by my tires which have about 1000 miles on them for 750, I paid 1400 but there just a little to big so I need to get smaller tires and these have to go, there falken 295-35-24

this is what it looked like on my truck stock



this is what if should look like on a 4 door only a little higher then this
