I found this at Fat Bobs Garage. Says average lift is 2" which should put me near level:

Does anyone have another suggestion or a link for a different manufacturer?

295 70r18 = 34.3'' x 11.6"
so approx 2.2'' taller than stock.
Lost Soul, do you have any better pictures of the truck with the new tires from the side? The one you posted is dark and the tires blend into the black truck.
I am planning on doing the same tires on stock wheels. how do you like them? any rubbing? If you dont mind me asking where and how much did you get the tires?

Thanks! I got the tires from America's Tire for about $1400 with rotation/balance/service/replacement plan. You can find them a little cheaper online without the extras.
