like they said, theres not a huge bump from the leveling kit to 4''. If your state allows a 6'', and your ok with what it requires (less gas mileage, more stress on suspension components, etc..) get the 6. i have 6 and sometimes wish i had 8

and lol. the thought of a f150 with a 6 foot lift warms my heart. imagine. 6 foot lift, 60 inch tires, would require every ounce of hp just to move on flat ground

^^^ I agree. 37s look nice, but stick with 35s. Less fatigue. Less power loss. Especially for a daily driver.

And get a 6" lift. NOBODY ever wishes they went smaller.

Yup, that too. I personally would run that big of tire, I just wanted to make sure the guy knew what he was getting into.
