Default body lift

i have a 99 ford f150 with a 2 in suspension lift. i want to get a body lift. i can't decide if i should get a 3 in or 2 in because i just got brand new 305/70r/17 tires and i dont want them to look too small on my truck. what lift would look better?

3 would look fine, 2 would look better. i know its only an inch but it makes a big difference. 5 inches of lift with a 33.8 inch tire will leave a gap in the front fender well. it depends on the look youre looking for. both of them will look good though.

is it possible to get a pic of what it looks like now? itd be easier to make a judgement.

thats with the new tires already on? a 3 inch wouldnt look bad on that at all. its all a matter of preference. getting in and out and what not. i hate getting in and out of mine, but i like 4 wheeling too much ha ha.

ok then def. go 3.

best would be to upgrade to 6 suspension lift if you like wheeling. most offroad guys wouldnt support a BL.
