Default Need help....

Screw Platinum 4x4 - looking to install Nitto Terra G2's 305/55/20 on 20x9 Fuel Throttle. I've been told 2 different things as I am getting quotes. Place #1 says to go with SST Block Kit 2.5" Front/3" Block Back - 599.00 G2's 347.00 each, Throttles 294.00 each - says it will give a good level "custom look". #2 says Rough Country 2.5" level is all that is needed for 425.00, G2's 334.00 each, Throttles 225.00 each. Says if I put block on back it will look similar to factory look - rake. #1 out door around $3500 and #2 out door around $2800. I don't want any rub or trimming.

Your 33" tires won't rub (depending on rim offset), even with only a 1.5" level.
If you go 2.5" up in the front, it'll be too high (but it's all a matter of opinion), and you'll want the blocks in the back.

Here's a 1.5" front only, with same sized tires (on a 17" rim, mind you).

Put it dead level. 2.5" would look really nose-high.

I, myself, prefer a bit of a rake, and think 2" front, 3" block rear looks best. Like this (this is with 35" tires though) :

Also...you don't think a 20" rim is a little big for 33" tires? 17 or 18" (like pictured above) would make it look more rugged.

Thanks. Thinking about 18" wheel. Gonna take a little more time, thought I had what I wanted. Might just go with level up front. Don't think I can fill up wheel well enough if go up 3" in back.
