Is that the 2 1/2" kit?
I need that to fit larger tires on my truck.
Figured I"d do kit then save for tires. What kit did you use?

Other than running taller tires what are the reasons/benefits of installing a leveling kit.

Other than taller tires, I believe it mostly has to do with personal preference. I know I like the level look

A 2.5" leveling kit should clear for 33's easy, without any fender well trimming. Tire type and offset though also play a factor. A 2" lift btw should also clear for 33" tires according to ReadyLIFT and Supreme Suspensions tire size guides. In fact, their 2.5" lifts according to their guides also clear for 35" tires.

I want to keep my 22's but get some thicker tires. 33's may not be much of a visual difference. And not sure 35's would fit with just a 2.5" leveling kit. Don't have the money to lift. May have to settle for some aggressive 33's.
Any tire suggestions.
