Nice. Im confused at what I want to se my Bilsteins at now... yours looks perfectly level on 1.5... but iv seen others on 2" that look level also. lol

Can you take a pic from the side with no angle to it? I really want to see if you can even tell the difference in the .5" difference.

I said the same thing awhile back. .I don't know if it's year model..or weight difference of motors that make different heights on different trucks. .I read with fox..Supposed to get 2" outta the box..I got 1.75"
the mystery remains on different trucks different height

I have researched this for months, but still have not got the question answered if the 275/65/20's will look too skinny? Planning on going with Terra Grappler (cheaper than Toyo) All other things being considered, this is my final concern. PLEASE HELP!
I should probably mention that I have 3.31 axle gears! Does that change anything?

As far as looks go...I'd try to find something in between. The 275/65/20's will look skinny and the 305/55/20 will look a little short. But the shorter tires will be a better match for your high gears (3.31's).

I agree with NASSTY for the most part. Personally I like the taller and narrower look. For your purposes though look at the 295/60/20 in Toyo or Nitto or the 285/60/20 Duratrac.

295/70/17 Nitto Trail Grapplers, and Bilstein 5100's set at the 1.5inch mark.

Looks killer and rides great. The Bilsteins really did a nice job on smoothing the ride out. Bumps are more firm, no doubt, but the damping is much better.


This is the day I got it:


Here is is now, leveled with the wheels. Also have FX4 headlights(tails on order)
