Senior almost

I did a 2.5 level kit tough country brand then wrapped Raptor black wheels with 295X70R18 tires Nitto all terrain raised it about 4 inches total in the fron from stock added spray on bed liner and N-Fab wheel to wheel side bars.. tires overall height 34.3 inches with 11.6 inch width... Good luck....

here is a pic of my 2010 with hell bent steel level kit with 35/12.5/18 on stock wheels, i have trimed the frt lower edge of the frt plastic bumper, took it off road and the only rubbing i had was a little on the inner of the rear when suspension was flexed heavily

Just ordered HBS 2" level today got the billet aluminum?! I still haven't made mind up on tires. You say you have 35-12.50 on stock 18 rim, do you see any ballooning from rims being to narrow?

In my opinion, get a 2" leveling kit for the front, and an add a leaf for the rear. It will be leveled and youll have a better towing with the add a leaf. As for tires, a 285/70/17 would be good, I'd go with either a Nitto terra grappler, bfg a/t or the new general grabber

They look good on the stock wheels. Didnt balloon to bad, I have gotten lots of compliments on how they look. Here is a pic of the wheel and tire closer then on the last pic I posted.

Getting ready to buy tires finally. Going with nitto 295/70/18 going on stock rims. Just have the 2" HBS level in front for now. I just want to double check with y'all to make sure that everything will be okie dokie ? 2009 xlt supercrew 4x4. Debating on trail and terras love the trail looks but not very practical for me would just be looks . Anyways I should be good right as far as tire and rim size 2" level = no problems
