Question Fx4 2008 Stock needing new tires and suspension

Aloha Nui Loa from Maui, Hawaii

I have an FX4 2008 with stock everything except the tires BFG rugged terrains 265/70r18s. These tires have been awesome on lava rock crawling, pasture, mud, and towing.

Because BFG has been treating me well I am thinking of continuing the brand and upgrading to K02s 275/70r18s this time..But since I am upgrading my suspension and adding a leaf should I go bigger? The tires have free shipping on amazon and are 239.00 kind of can't beat that deal especially to Hawaii..not even the shops here can beat that price..

I have been reading these forums for a few years now and have been a sleeper but have appreciated all the knowledge gained thus far. It seems like adding a leaf kit is the way to go and not the airbags for what I will be doing, but what are your thoughts?

I hunt twice a week year around, which means driving through pasture land and off roading quite a bit. This truck gets used pretty hard and I am leaning towards going big and getting the Fox 2.0s..? But have read a lot of the forums on the Bilstein 5100s as well as the Rancho 9000s quick lifts...The reason I am leaning towards the 2.0s is they are only 350.00 more than the Ranchos..which I am considering but is still quite a bit of change.. The shipping is whats the kicker on the Ranchos where on Amazon Fox's have free shipping for some reason to Hawaii...stoked..

Let's get this thread started!

Stoked and Mahalo Nui,
