Default 6.5 ft bed SCREW with leveling kit and 33's?

Hey there, if any of you have a 6.5 bed super screw with leveling kit/rear blocks and 33 inch tires, please feel free to upload pictures.

So far I have the front leveled. Haven't decided on rear blocks and 33's. Or actually lifting it with some bigger tires.

Let's see the pics!

Personal opinion after having both on, if you can afford the decrease in mpg's do the 295/70/18's or a 35's, looks so much better.

Here's my '09 FX4 Screw 6.5', with Rancho 2' quick lift in front and 0" in back. The wheels are 18x9 with 35mm offset. The tires are BFG A/T size 305/65/18. The tire caculater says that is 33.6" tall, but a tape measure shows 33" even. Never rubbed at all, even flexing the suspension.

Badass trucks! Any of you have a major loss in fuel mileage with 33's?

I may just go with a set of 285/55-20 BFG all terrains. Works out to be 32.5 x 11.5 wide.

I'm scared to go with anything bigger because of the mpg drop..Before this truck i had a 2012 3.7l mustang that got up to 38 mpg highway..

now i'm getting 20 TOPS lol

I noticed some with the lift and tires, then again if I was worried about fuel economy I would drive my civic more. I love the truck
I think maybe 2-3 L per 100km

not to bad, but i haven't driven it to much as they installed them today, but it did go up to 17.8 from 12.7 with the trail grapplers just on the 15mile drive home, with the stock tires, 275/65/18 i was only 1mpg or so better so not to bad with the 33's

On my buddys land, they have 6 or so to put back into the power grid.
I thought it would be a nice little photo shoot
