Default Leveling kit before and after

I'm planning on adding a leveling kit to my 08 XLT Screw. I just wanted to see some pics of everyones before I go through with it.

I'm at work and can't access my photobucket from here...but do a search and you'll find some pics of my truck. I went with Bilstein 5100's and couldn't be happier with the ride and height! They added about 2.25 of lift.

What tire size did you go with to get 35s on stock wheels?

thanks, i love how my truck looks. it fits my style great, i like lifted trucks, but for my daily driving style, a bigger lift wouldn't be practical. plus i like being able to park my truck in my garage still, BARELY! (no offense to you 6" and up lifted guys, your trucks are bad *****)

mpg's-no noticeable change or drop. I still get around 13ish city and 16ish on highway, give or take a lil depending on my foot of course...
