I order a 2 inch kit from auto spring , installed it myself and then got it aligned all for less than 110 dollars. I know there is a lot of talk about what size to use. Mine truck is a xlt 4wd and it sets almost even on level ground. It rides and drives as good as it ever has. I do know in my case i couldn`t have gone much higher without adding blocks to the rear. I don`t want the front higher than the back. I probally could have went with the 2.5 but I`m glad I went with the 2 inch.

i had a 3 inch body lift on my 05 ranger and personally would never put another one on any of my trucks. they put alot of stress on the body mounts and i had issues with the bolts staying tight and my steering shaft had a bad bind. also road and wind noise is noticeably worse. plan a whole 12 hours to install it too. took me about that with 2 people helping. 2 inch budget boost and 33's should be plenty fine. i think it would look too tall with the 3 inch body lift added on. just personal preference tho. good luck!

Here you go Triton these are the best pics I have with the 33's hopefully I'll get some better ones this weekend as for the auto spring I'm almost positive the kit only cost me $69(just checked on price yup the kit still is $69) then I paid to have installed all said and done cost me $270 and included wheel alignment also think those rims your thinking about are awesome been looking at them for some time and I think they are the ones I'm gonna get when I have the cash I think they have the perfect balance of silver and black not a big fan of total blacked out rims and don't think truck would look right with all chromed out rims

Thanks man!!! I was planning on doing all this in then next few weeks until I looked at the rubber on the Pirellis and noticed that they have over 50% of tread left. I'm prolly gonna do the upgrade and leveling kit when it's time for new tires. I just can't see upgrading now and with all that tread left unless someone buys them from me.

What is your actual tire size??? and tire info
They don't look like 33 x 12.50
I like the look, and I'm planning similar for mine.

Riggo I know you quoted Rplatt but my tire size according to bfg for the T305/65 R18=33.7" tire it's on the 18"stock rim and I believe they are a 7.5" rim hope this helps you

my tire size is 295/70/17. According to the charts, that equates to 33.4s. The 4 wheel specialist i use stated i could go as large as 305s and not rub any where. The tires are Nitto Terra Grapplers and cost only $700.00 for the complete set mounted and balanced. The 2.5" level kit brought the front end up to about chest height. Wife wants a lift kit put on it but i dont know about that. Now on my 07 Lariet, Im wanting to level it out but thinking of putting a Ground Force shackle kit to lower the rear.

Thanks for the info.... I have 20's on my truck and love the rims, but to move to 33's is major expensive.....
