Default Leveling kit and 17" rims

Have a 2004 f150 lariat with the 5.4 super crew I want a leveling kit that won't break the bank and wheels and tires that won't throw off my speedo and fuel economy. I was thinking about ditching the 18's and dropping to 17s. I want a more aggressive look but not all the problems that come with lifting. I was thinking about a 2" front with the spacers and running 275 tires

Heads up, there are TONS of leveling kit threads on here. So expect to be told to search.

Now to answer your questions since I'm such a nice guy.

Ebay has tons of leveling kits, Hell Bent Steel, Auto Spring, etc. All are great. And low price. Be sure to get an alignment afterwards unless you like buying tires often.

Anytime you change tire size from stock your speedometer will be off. Depends on how far away from stock you go.

Hope you learn alot from this site, and READ & SEARCH!

I own a 04 fx4 and went with the hellbent steel 3inch leveling kit and love it. I think it was around 70bucks and they ship super fast. Ordered it on a friday and it was at my door monday, 3 hours later i had it on the truck
