The Superlift kit was fine and no trimming, although they did rub just a little bit but nothing real bad.

I agree that going with a 6'' inch lift and staying with 33's is gonna look too small. I did a 2.5 inch level with 35's. next step is a 6'' inch lift

Nice truck! Are those Mickey Thompson rims?

No, Pro Comp wheels (part#1079). Mickey Thompson don't make 18's that I know of.

Th Rims are 20x10 XD Monster wheels and Tires are 35 inch NITTO Trail Grapplers. I paid 168 per rim and 185 per tire. A good friend of mine owns a shop in Nashville Tn. Unique Automotive, thats how I got the at such a good deal.

honestly I think 35 are the biggest anyone should go with a 6 inch lift(you COULD get 37's on it).. a lot of people want the biggest tire possible because of looks. people put 35's on their truck with only a leveling kit, they fit, but what happens off road?..
in my opinion, I like the super-duty kinda look, where the tires are smaller. I have 295/70/17s and Im getting a 6 inch lift a keeping the tires. I might upgrade to 305's but not sure. if I figure out how to post a picture il do it.

I think my 35's look small but I'm also sitting at 7.5

Yikes, I haven't followed up with this thread in a long time. I paid 650 for the set (rims only) from 4wheelparts. I kept them until I got the tires and then installed myself.
