Default rough country lift

does anyone have any experience with this particular lift. I live in Germany right now and its lot legal for the tires to stick out past the fenders so I don't wan to go too big. this is a really good looking setup in my opinion.

It's good alternative... I hear the bielstiens are a lil stiff I'd get the one your looking at or the rancho quick lift... If you were getting a 6" lift ten I'd say bielstiens

I have been reading that the coil spacers can cause wobble issues. I'm not saying it does I'm just saying I read that. I like the bilsteins are an adjustable strut.

No wobble to speak of here. If you've got the money go bilstein, if you're trying save for other mods go rough country. You can get the same look and its a quality product. Just my opinion.

thanks for all the input. I will probable go rize 12'' when I get back to the states but I have to take a lot of things into consideration here. I will probably do the standard exhaust/intake/tuner/4.10 gears/wheels tires and maybe if I get this next promotion a supercharger I diffidently need a small lift ive never had stock suspension. This was my last truck and would still be mine if it wasnt for that garbage 6.0
