Top is with LT305x55x20 Nitto Terra's at stock height and bottom is with a 2 inch Autospring level...no rubbing either way but tires are real close on the inside due to the backspacing of the stock wheels.

Hey NASSTY... I just measured my truck rake. It seems I only have approx 1.25" of difference. There's a couple of factors though...
1) I have a fold-up ladder in the bed and also a toolbox that's pretty full. Those are items that I generally have in the bed most of the time.
2) I have my spare on the front drivers side and it's a 275/65/18. I measured the passenger's side because it is still stock tires/wheels front & rear. I'm not sure if that spare could be throwing off the front measurement by squatting or extending the stock passenger's side??
The way it seems right now is that even if I go with the 1" Daystar, and it actually gives 2" of lift, I will be nose high. Hmmmmm...
BTW, I measured from ground to top-center of wheel-well and from top of tire to top-center of wheel-well and got pretty much the same results.
I can post a picture of my truck the way it's sitting right now. The lighting isn't that great in the photo but you should get an idea of how it looks right now...
How do I post a photo directly into a message and not just a link??
